[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Paul Lee] SK E&S, along with Avis, one of the top three U.S. rental car companies, has built a large-scale electric vehicle charging station at Houston Airport in the U.S. This is the first time a Korean company has succeeded in building a large-scale charging infrastructure in the U.S.
SK E&S announced on the 29th that EverCharge, an EV charging subsidiary, has installed and started operating an EV charging station at its Avis plant in Houston George Bush International Airport. Earlier in March last year, SK E&S acquired EverCharge, an EV charging company, through US investment company Passkey and entered the US electric vehicle charging business.
The smart power installed in the EverCharge's EV charger (EVO2) can analyze the charging pattern of the electric vehicle being charged, allocate power efficiently, and operate the charger flexibly considering the power situation.
Avis is expanding cooperation with SK E&S by securing additional airport locations that can install charging stations within this year.
