GSA invests in electric vehicle infrastructure at Atlanta Federal Center
The US General Services Administration (GSA) is making a major push for sustainable transportation. It announced a $1.7 million contract with EnviroSpark Energy Solutions, LLC. The project, funded by the Inflation Reduction Act, will add 112 EV charging ports to the Sam Nunn Atlanta Federal Center. It’s the largest investment GSA has made so far in EV infrastructure under this historic climate law.
This project is part of a larger effort. In March, GSA unveiled 32 EV charging initiatives across 21 states, totaling $25 million. The Atlanta project supports President Biden’s Investing in America agenda and the Federal Sustainability Plan.
The federal fleet is the largest in the world. By 2027, all light-duty vehicles must be zero-emission. By 2035, the same will apply to medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. Since 2021, the government has ordered nearly 82,000 zero-emission vehicles. It has also installed over 10,500 charging ports, with more than 52,500 in progress.
Jason Shelton, GSA’s Regional Administrator, commented:
“I am excited about the installation of the charging infrastructure at the Sam Nunn Atlanta Federal Center as it is vital to transitioning our regional federal fleet toward electric vehicles. Investing in this infrastructure will contribute to cleaner air and improved health for all Atlantans.”
The Sam Nunn Center’s new charging ports will be ready by fall 2025.
