*Last year American car buyers broke a record, registering over 1.3 million new electric vehicles, according to KBB. Electric vehicles represented 8 percent of total new vehicle sales in 2024.
While most Americans have been hesitant to make the shift to go electric due to a lack of charging infrastructure, pioneer and founder of the Texas-based Revitalize Charging Solutions, Edward Morgan, has been helping to charge up America.
Since 2013, well before most of us knew what the combined letters EV represented Morgan was working a full-time job during the day at AT & T, while burning the midnight oil creating pilot charging stations for his own business. Ironically, at the time the entrepreneur launched the business, he did not own an electric vehicle. Morgan, a New Orleans native, is one of a handful of early pioneers from the Black community, helping the country go green. In fact, the HBCU college dropout, has the first Black-owned business on record to mass produce charging stations.
Today Revitalize Charging Solutions charging stations are being used by commercial properties, homes and government facilities throughout the U.S.
To find out what sparked the entrepreneur to launch his business, how he initially funded it and how to purchase a charging station, tune in to Auto Trends with JeffCars.com.
