Olathe, KS invests in first-in-state electric vehicle chargers powered by the sun

Olathe, KS First-in-State Electric Vehicle Chargers

Six BEAM EV ARC chargers added to the Indian Creek Library, Lake Olathe, and the Olathe Community Center. Each charger provides a steady source of battery power during outages and weather events thanks to overhead solar panels. The EV charging network is accessible at no cost to residents and fleet vehicle drivers. Olathe worked with the Metropolitan Energy Center to access federal grants for the network along with city-owned electric vehicles.
