Since December 2019, AEG’s LA Galaxy and Dignity Health Sports Park have delivered over 954,000 miles to electric vehicle (EV) drivers utilizing Volta’s EV charging stations on site. The 12 charging stations at the stadium, operated by Volta, offer guests a convenient way to recharge their vehicles while enjoying events. This initiative is part of the LA Galaxy’s sustainable program, Protect the Pitch, that focuses on stadium sustainability and clean energy efforts.
Katie Pandolfo, General Manager of Dignity Health Sports Park, emphasized the importance of Volta’s EV charging network in meeting the increasing demand for electric vehicles at the venue, stating that the collaboration with Volta has enhanced the guest experience by providing alternative transportation solutions. Volta’s EV charging network utilizes machine learning and artificial intelligence to predict the number of stations and charging speeds needed to match customer visit times, maximizing convenience for EV drivers and elevating the overall guest experience.
In addition to providing a simple and reliable EV charging experience, Volta’s chargers feature eye-catching media screens used by AEG’s LA Galaxy and Dignity Health Sports Park to promote upcoming events and shows, thereby supporting ticket sales. Dignity Health Sports Park, home to the LA Galaxy and various athletic competitions, demonstrates a commitment to eco-friendly practices through this EV charging initiative.
