AmpUp and EVSE Bring Convenient EV Charging to LA’s Urban Streets

SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — AmpUp, the most reliable and comprehensive electric vehicle (EV) charging software platform, and EVSE, a Division of Control Module Inc., which designs and manufactures unique, patented, retractable-cable EV charging stations and support equipment, today announced an expanded deployment for the Los Angeles Bureau of Street Lighting (LABSL) providing Level 2 EV chargers for an additional 150 existing streetlight poles throughout LA communities.

AmpUp’s software, designed for simplicity and high reliability, ensures users can easily manage their EV charging sessions with minimal downtime and maximum availability of charging stations. AmpUp offers convenient app-less charging, while drivers who prefer using the AmpUp app can pay with all major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and WEX.

EVSE offers a unique light pole-mounted EV solution that can be installed on existing or new structures to save installation costs, enable curbside charging, and utilize precious right-of-way resources. This solution can lower installation costs by up to 70% compared to ground-mounted stations by eliminating digging-related construction and reducing the need for electrical wiring. Installed above grade at 10 feet, the solution reduces vandalism, vehicular damage, tripping hazards, and cable damage. The 25-foot cable descends upon activation and retracts when unplugged from the vehicle.

With a proven track record of over a decade, EVSE’s American-made EV solutions have demonstrated exceptional reliability across thousands of installations serving hundreds of utilities and municipalities nationwide, establishing it as a trusted industry leader.

“Pole-mounted chargers make EV charging more accessible to a broader population, including those living in multi-unit dwellings or areas where traditional charging stations are scarce,” said Dean Spacht, vice president of sales and marketing of EVSE. “While our patented retractable cable design addresses the city’s urban safety and vandalism concerns, AmpUp’s platform adds reliability and a crucial layer of grid intelligence. Their demand response feature allows for managed loads during peak demand, supporting grid stability. The EVSE-AmpUp team delivers a smart, secure urban charging solution that serves EV owners and contributes to overall energy management in cities.”

Pole-mounted EV chargers are an excellent charging solution for Los Angeles, with its high population density, especially in urban areas where parking is often limited to on-street only. These convenient chargers provide a solution for residents who drive EVs and only have access to on-street parking. In a city where space is at a premium, elevated streetlight or utility pole-mounted chargers save valuable ground space that traditional EV charging stations would otherwise occupy.

LABSL oversees the city’s complex lighting infrastructure, featuring over 220,000 lighting poles. The LABSL streetlight EV charging program began with a mayoral target to install 10,000 EV chargers throughout the city, alongside a BSL initiative to replace existing bulbs with energy-efficient LEDs. The bulb switch significantly reduces electricity demand for lighting, freeing up capacity for other uses such as EV charging. The chargers are integrated into the existing streetlight infrastructure, utilizing 240-volt electrical service without requiring upgrades.

By integrating EV charging within existing streetlights, LABSL aims to support the mandate set by the Mayor’s Sustainable pLAn, which targets a 25% increase in EV adoption by 2025 (adding 100,000 new electric vehicles), 80% by 2035, and 100% by 2050.

SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On the evening of September 26, Shenzhen hosted a spectacular drone show themed “City of Sky, Maybe Shenzhen” above Shenzhen Bay Park. A total of 10,197 drones took to the sky simultaneously, setting two Guinness World Records: “The most multirotor/drones airborne simultaneously from a single computer (outdoors)” and “The largest aerial image formed by multirotors/drones”.

The drone light show was a breathtaking spectacle. A vast array of drones came together to form a stunning starry sky, making the audience feel as though they were floating in an endless universe. What truly amazed the crowd was the sight of a floating “Sky City” materializing in midair, intertwined with iconic Shenzhen elements like the city’s landmarks, light shows, and scenes of Wing Chun, all symbolizing the limitless future of Shenzhen. Following this, dazzling “cyber fireworks” lit up the night, painting a vibrant picture of Shenzhen as a “City of Miracles, City of Innovation, City of Future”. 

The drones’ kaleidoscopic display in the night sky was not just a technological and visual feast but also a vivid demonstration of Shenzhen’s limitless potential as a “Sky City” for global visitors. 

It is worth noting that this drone show was just the beginning. During the National Day Holiday, Shenzhen will continue the drone performances for seven consecutive days. Daily shows will feature 10,000 drones across five districts in a relay format. 

To welcome global tourists to experience low-altitude tourism, starting from September 23, Shenzhen has been offering special holiday packages for seven consecutive days. This includes 10,000 low-altitude flight experience vouchers, allowing visitors to enjoy helicopter rides and take in the stunning urban landscapes, mountains, and coastal vistas of Shenzhen from above. 

In addition, Shenzhen will host over 300 highlight cultural and tourism activities. It will also offer more than 40,000 discounted attraction tickets, 2,000 free admission tickets, and 1,000 Shenzhen Airlines upgrade vouchers, inviting tourists from around the world to join in this grand autumn tourism celebration.
