Meriden, CT – Inovis Energy is proud to announce the successful completion of an electric vehicle (EV) charging station installation for Eastern Mountain Sports and Bob’s Stores’ Headquarters in Meriden, CT.  This effort is part of Bob’s Stores/EMS’s larger commitment to sustainability, which includes investing in green energy, reducing emissions, and energy efficiency projects.  The EV charging stations will be available to employees, guests, and the general public, providing a convenient and sustainable solution for EV drivers.

The project, which was designed and installed by Inovis Energy, consists of two publicly accessible ChargePoint DC Fast Chargers and two dual-port level 2 ChargePoint CT4000 chargers. EMS/Bob’s Stores is the first major retailer in the area to offer both Level 2 and DC Fast EV charging stations to their employees, making it easier for staff and guests to charge their electric vehicles while they work. 

Inovis Energy was able to qualify the project for Eversource Connecticut EV charging incentives.  The rebates helped pay for a significant portion of the total installation cost.  The lower out-of-pocket cost allows Eastern Mountain Sports and Bob’s Stores to invest in other sustainability projects.  This collaboration between Inovis Energy, EMS/Bob’s and Eversource demonstrates a commitment to creating a more sustainable future and encourages the wider adoption of EVs.

“We are thrilled to have been a part of this important project with Eastern Mountain Sports and Bob’s Stores,” said Greg Horne, Solutions Consultant of Inovis Energy. “The installation of these charging stations is a critical step towards a cleaner and more sustainable future, and we are proud to have played a role in making it happen.”

“At Eastern Mountain Sports and Bob’s Stores, we are committed to reducing our environmental impact and promoting sustainability in all of our operations,” said Kevin Campbell, Executive Vice President of Operations. “These new EV charging stations are just one example of the many steps we are taking to make a difference, and we are grateful to have had Inovis Energy as our partner in this effort.”

The installation is one of many sustainability projects that EMS/Bob’s Stores has planned as part of their commitment to reducing their carbon footprint and promoting environmental sustainability.
