Celebrate National Drive Electric Week

National Drive Electric Week is September 25 – October 3, which provides an opportunity to learn about electric vehicles (EVs) and determine if an EV is right for you. There are a few ways you can join in:

1Attend an event. Electric co-ops will be hosting events in communities around the state to introduce members to the benefits of driving electric. Find what’s happening near you from Plug-in NC, the statewide program affiliated with Raleigh-based Advanced Energy.

2Plan an event. Nothing going on near you? Host your own event! Download a planning guide from Plug-in NC, or visit driveelectricweek.org for more resources.

3Learn more from your electric co-op. Use the opportunity to discuss EVs with your local electric co-op. Many offer incentives for driving electric, and all will be happy to discuss how an EV may make sense for you.
