Xos Proposes Zero-Emission Power Solution for LA 2028 Olympic Games
Xos, Inc. released a white paper titled "Powering the Venues: A Zero-Emission Venue Power Solution for the LA 2028 Games," detailing its proposed energy solution for the upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games. The paper highlights that LA28's commitments to 100% renewable electricity and no new permanent infrastructure cannot be met by conventional methods like diesel generators or permanent grid connections. Xos proposes its mobile AC Power Hub and Xos Solar System ecosystem as the only viable alternative, capable of meeting the daily demand of over 117 MWh across 40+ venues. The company emphasizes its existing experience, including eight Xos Hub units deployed with LADWP, and the modular, redeployable nature of its solution, which can be deployed in days and repurposed after the Games.
