Invisible Urban Charging (“IUC”) is excited to announce its
strategic partnership with Highwoods Properties (NYSE: HIW), a
renowned publicly traded real estate investment trust (“REIT”), to
supply electric vehicle (“EV”) chargers at one of its premier
properties located in Atlanta, Georgia.
Under the terms of the agreement, IUC has replaced existing
on-site chargers with 10 state-of-the-art units at Highwoods
Properties’ recently renovated 200 Riverwood. This modern, 299,000
square-foot all-glass office building is situated in Atlanta's
upscale Cumberland submarket, designed to attract a next-generation
workforce. The installation was completed in less than three days
and is now online, offering an enhanced charging experience to
tenants and visitors alike.
“For decades, Highwoods Properties has been committed to
Investing in clean energy infrastructure to contribute towards a
sustainable future and provide healthy and productive workspaces
for our customers,” said Devon K. Tucker, Parking Operations
Supervisor for Highwoods. “With the growth and demand for electric
vehicles, we felt it was appropriate to partner with a company like
IUC, which shared the same goals as our organization. We strongly
advocate supporting the transition to electric mobility as a vital
step toward a sustainable future. Embracing electric vehicles
reduces reliance on fossil fuels, curbs harmful emissions, and
improves air quality, contributing to a cleaner and greener
environment. By investing in charging infrastructure, incentivizing
electric vehicle adoption, and promoting technological
advancements, we can accelerate this transition and create a
healthier, more sustainable transportation system for future
generations.”
Highwoods Properties, headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina,
is recognized for its ownership, development, acquisition, leasing,
and management of properties situated primarily in the thriving
Best Business Districts (BBDs) of Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas,
Nashville, Orlando, Raleigh, Richmond, and Tampa. As a member of
the S&P MidCap 400 Index, Highwoods Properties demonstrates its
commitment to excellence and market leadership.
“Fulfilling Highwoods Properties’ need for a complete, advanced
EV charger solution was why IUC was started,” said Nigel Broomhall,
Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of IUC. “Our mission is to
provide our partners with robust EV charger infrastructure that
brings value over the lifetime of our partnership,” he explained.
“We are excited to deepen our collaboration with Highwoods and
contribute to the increased value of their prestigious
properties.”
For the installation, IUC has collaborated with Jones Lang
Lasalle (“JLL”), a globally recognized leader in property
development and management. Leveraging JLL's expertise and a
nationwide installation capability through its extensive network of
electrical contractors, logistics, and signage partners, IUC
ensures a seamless deployment process.
By partnering with major property owners, IUC facilitates
on-site EV charging at scale, helping meet the estimated demand of
3.5 million chargers by 2030. Over the next 12-18 months, IUC plans
to deploy more than 50,000 EV chargers across the United
States.
