“Atlanta International Airport has set out to become one of the
greenest airports in the world, and AeroVironment will help ATL and
its guests support that goal with our TurboDock EV charging
systems,” said Ken Karklin, Vice President and General Manager,
Efficient Energy Systems for AeroVironment. “TurboDock is one of
the easiest-to-use and most cost-effective charging stations
available. Packed with features specifically designed to make it
ideal for airports, including modular charging configurations, 120V
capability and mobile app based access control, TurboDock helps EV
drivers proceed with certainty.”
The installation of AeroVironment TurboDock charging stations is
the most recent effort by the City of Atlanta and the
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport to turn ATL into
one of the greenest airports in the world. TurboDock charging
stations will be located at the following parking locations at the
airport: North and South Domestic Terminal daily lots, South
Employee lot, the Maynard H. Jackson International Terminal Hourly
deck, the International Park-Ride deck, the ATL Technical Support
Campus and Maintenance Building No. 1 in the ATL airport
perimeter.
AeroVironment TurboDock is designed for commercial applications
like those found in Atlanta and other fast growing EV markets. Out
of the box, TurboDock charges at either Level 1 (12 amps/120
volts), or at Level 2 (16 amps/240 volts). TurboDock is
easy-to-use, flexible, offers low cost installation and features
innovative access control using Bluetooth and a smartphone app,
with none of the recurring monthly cellular fees associated with
other networked chargers. The configurable, modular design allows
for maximum installation flexibility.
TurboDock chargers offer power level and charging configurations
appropriate for Airport applications. Having power flexibility
allows for more charging ports for a given budget or available
power capacity. Drivers parking their cars at airports and other
transit locations prefer a larger number of low power charging
ports, rather than a smaller number of high power ports, since
their cars typically remain parked for longer periods of time.
TurboDock charging stations can be found in a growing number of
workplaces, transit stations, hotels, shopping malls and
universities. For more information, please visit
