What's the Road Ahead for Electric Cars?
Infrastructure, performance, prices, policies, and incentives
October 30, 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
Join Acorn Renewable Energy Co-op for an educational session on electric cars on Wednesday, October 30, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the Addison Country Regional Planning Commission offices at 14 Seminary Street in Middlebury.
Dave Roberts, the Drive Electric Vermont Coordinator, will give an overview of the types of plug-in electric cars available in Vermont, the different options for purchasing or leasing new or used models, purchase incentives, and charging options at home and on the road.
Taborri Bruhl, an electric vehicle owner for over six years, will speak about his experience with his 1st and 2nd generation Nissan Leafs, and his most recent experience with his Tesla Model 3. Taborri not only commutes in his electric car, but has also crossed the country multiple times in various EVs, so he can speak with authority on range and charging questions you may have regarding long-distance EV travel.
Acorn energy Co-op Board Members Ben Marks, with a 2018 Chevy Bolt, and Suzy Hodgson with a 2019 Nissan Leaf will also share their recent electric car experiences including home charging and options for powering with renewable energy. They will also address how they made their purchasing decisions and talk about driver charging etiquette.
Session includes time for light refreshments, questions and answers, sitting in and checking out electric car dashboard displays, and short drives in parking lot.
