Your Cooperative identified Electric Vehicles as a technology that we need to become more involved with for our members. Take a look at our Comprehensive EV strategy by clicking Here.

Electric Vehicles (EV) Cost Less To Operate Than Gas Powered Cars.
EV operation can be three to five times cheaper than gasoline and diesel-powered cars, depending on your local gasoline and electric rates. CLICK HERE to link to a calculator.

EVs Are Environmentally Friendly.
EVs have no tailpipe emissions. Your Cooperative's generation portfolio continues to evolve into using more emission-free renewable energy to generate your electricity. However, a portion of our power must come from fossil fuels to remain reliable. So, your EV is not 100% fossil fuel-free but it does use more renewable energy than a gasoline car.

Never Go To The Gas Station Again.
Electric vehicles do not require gasoline and can be charged at home with a standard 120V outlet or a 240V level 2 charger can be installed for faster, more efficient charging.

EV Performance Benefits.
Electric motors provide quiet, smooth operation, stronger acceleration and require less maintenance than gasoline-powered internal combustion engines.

EV Driving Range & Recharge Time.
EV range is typically around 80 to over 330 miles on a full charge. The average American’s daily round-trip commute is less than 30 miles. Fully recharging the battery pack can take four to eight hours. A "fast charge" to 80% capacity can take 30 min.*
