ABU DHABI -- General Electric (GE) marked its participation at the World Future Energy Summit 2011 with the unveiling of its 'smart' WattStation electric vehicle charger in the 
Middle East.

Launched in 2010, GE 's WattStation is an easy-to-use electric vehicle (EV) charger that enables fast recharging at home and on the road. It is designed to help accelerate the adoption of plug-in electric vehicles by significantly decreasing time needed for 
vehicle charging.

We are committed to partnering with the region to deliver advanced solutions such as the Smart Grid -- which we are 
showcasing at WFES."

By using smart grid technology, GE 's WattStation allows utility companies to manage the impact of electric vehicles on the local and regional grids.
