Electrify Expo Partners with Anker to Serve as Sustainable Power Source for Festival Tour, Cutting Carbon Emissions
More than 1 million square feet of festival space to be powered by Anker’s PowerHouse 767 Portable Power Stations
LONG BEACH, Calif., May 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Electrify Expo, North America’s largest electric vehicle (EV) festival, has announced a first-of-its-kind and exclusive partnership with Anker, the world's #1 mobile charging brand, to power its 2023 festival tour, which will cut the tour’s carbon emissions. The Anker PowerHouse 767, Anker’s most efficient, longest-lasting, and most portable power station ever designed, will provide Electrify Expo with 100% of the tour’s 110V power needs through a sustainable and renewable energy source.“As we’ve grown to be the largest electric vehicle festival in North America, it’s been a focus of ours to search for sustainable methods of powering our festival,” said BJ Birtwell, founder and executive producer of Electrify Expo. “Our partnership with Anker brings a recognized and reliable power source, and also a renewable one that eliminates our need for fossil fuels to power any of our 110V requirements. The 767 Power Station is the perfect solution for Electrify Expo to power our events around the country in an efficient and clean way.”
Each Electrify Expo location covers over 1 million square feet of exhibition, demo and festival space, including hundreds of exhibitor displays. The Anker PowerHouse 767 boasts a massive capacity of 2048Wh that can double to 4096Wh with the 760 Expansion Battery and lasts up to 50,000 hours lifespan. While you can certainly recharge the 767 using a standard home outlet, the portable power station can also be recharged using up to five compatible solar panels, providing a truly green power source.
“Anker is thrilled to be Electrify Expo’s 2023 sustainability partner,” said Eric Villines, Head of Global Communications for Anker Innovations. “By leveraging our long-lasting portable power solutions, including the Anker 767 Powerhouse, Electrify will be able to reduce its use of gas-powered generators, and lower the carbon emissions for this year's tour.”
In addition to powering Electrify Expo, Anker will have a pop-up exhibition area onsite to further showcase its sustainable power solutions including its lineup of portable power stations and solar panels at Electrify Expo’s seven locations.
