Universe Living, a Los Angeles-based property management company, announced the deployment of more than 125 EV chargers.

The company partnered with Xeal, a smart EV charging company, to install chargers across eight multifamily communities throughout Los Angeles and San Bernardino Counties, enhancing EV accessibility for hundreds of residents.

Universe Living is integrating Xeal’s self-reliant EV charging technology across its properties to provide a seamless, tech-enabled experience for residents while reinforcing its commitment to providing sustainable infrastructure at its communities.

“Universe Living is focused on delivering high-quality living experiences, and reliable EV charging is a critical amenity for today’s residents,” said Scott Kurzban, Chief Operating Officer of Universe Living, in a statement. “By partnering with Xeal, we are ensuring our communities have access to the most advanced, maintenance-free EV charging solution available.”

This project received a $1.68 million funding award from the California Energy Commission’s Reliable, Equitable, and Accessible Charging for Multi-Family Housing 2.0 Program (REACH 2.0). The Sustainable, Equitable, and Reliable Vehicle Electrification (SERVE) Project will support the deployment of the EV chargers.

Xeal’s technology eliminates the need for costly network infrastructure and ensures reliable performance for all environments. By pioneering the use of a multi-hop, hyper local computing architecture that is powered by tokens and ledgers, Xeal chargers provide an easily accessible, 100% uptime guarantee charging experience for EV drivers.
