The collaboration includes the development of pull-through charging stations, catering specifically to the needs of electric RVs, a growing segment in the outdoor hospitality industry.
The EO Canopy, Electric Outdoors’ flagship product, represents a groundbreaking approach to camping, powered entirely by renewable energy. This aligns with the company’s mission to provide sustainable off-grid energy, water, and waste solutions to campers, including EV drivers and RVers.
