The Navy has bought $60,000 worth of EV charging stations from OpConnect. “The OpConnect dual Level I & II units, capable of charging four vehicles at the same time, will be installed at Navy facilities in Washington, DC;Indian Head, MD and San Diego, CA.

“The OpConnect system is an authenticated solution that allows owners to restrict access via custom, credit, fleet or debit cards.

OpConnect, notably, is a veteran-owned business.
