PowerSouth inks partnership with EV charging platform Optiwatt

Juan Pedro August 15, 2023

In Alabama, Alabama Today reported that PowerSouth Electric Cooperative has announced a partnership with EV charging platform Optiwatt.

The report noted that this partnership allows electric vehicle owners in participating areas of Alabama and Florida to receive $25 compensation to register for the PowerSouth Managed Charging Pilot.

The partnership between Optiwatt and PowerSouth is a pilot program aimed at preparing U.S. electricity grids for increasing EV adoption, which is expected to grow exponentially in the next few years and put local utility providers under stress due to heightened charging demand, the report adds.

The Electric Vehicle Research Pilot will analyze EV charging trends to prepare the South’s electricity infrastructure for the expected load from electric vehicle charging.
