Brightfield™ TS and Eaton teamed up with UNCA to install chargers on campus.
In cooperation with Eaton Corporation and UNCA, Brightfield™ TS is proud to announce that our Eaton Pow-R-Stations are fully functional. These 2 chargers represent our 4th site in Asheville. “We selected the Reuters Center because a high percentage of Center participants drive hybrid electric vehicles. When we did our site analysis, we found that almost 10% of the vehicles in the lot were hybrids. That indicated to us that the Reuters Center was a likely early EV adopter hub”, commented Stan Cross, Co-Founder of BTS.
These chargers are FREE to use through July of 2012.

“As interest in Electric Vehicles grows, the Brightfield™ Lite is a demonstration of the smallest of our Brightfield™ products, ideal for homes and tight infill locations. Its 2 kilowatt array will create enough electricity to drive the average electric car on sunshine 10,000 miles annually. This is an important installation because it also shows our stand-alone patent-pending Brightfield™ Charging Bollard”, reports Matt Johnson, Co-Founder of BTS. The Brightfield™ Charging Bollard is an identifiable and durable mounting system for electric vehicle chargers in institutional and municipal settings.
