renewable energy - UGE & GE Skypump: The world's first wind-powered EV Charging Station




Introducing the Skypump, UGE's revolutionary wind-powered EV charging station developed in collaboration with GE Energy. Working together with GE Energy, a leader in renewable energy and the world's premier supplier of charging stations, UGE offers consumers the ground-breaking Sanya Skypump. Installed by UGE Iberia, the Spanish branch of New York-based Urban Green Energy, the Skypump is located at Cespa's global headquarters near Barcelona. Equipped with an LED light, GE WattStation/DuraStation (depending on location) technology, and capturing up to 4 kW of wind energy, the Sanya Skypump ensures that EVs are powered by the cleanest energy possible - directly from the wind! Homeowners may also couple the same UGE-4K turbine with GE's wall-mounted WattStationTM to have renewable EV charging capabilities at home. The Sanya Skypump makes EV charging as simple as possible with target locations in parking lots, highway rest areas, or any convenient roadside. When the charging station is not in use, the UGE-4K turbine will continue to operate and feed energy back into the grid, providing the local electric grid with additional renewable energy.
