National Drive Electric Week 2016

 

Colorado residents and visitors will be “electrified” the week of Sept. 10-18 when National Drive Electric Week (NDEW) comes back to town. Attendees will get to experience first-hand some of the most popular electric vehicle (EV) models available by visiting one of the six events occurring throughout the metro area.

Charge Ahead Colorado (an EV and infrastructure grant funding program formed in partnership by the Regional Air Quality Council and the Colorado Energy Office) will be available to discuss the myths and benefits of EV ownership, workplace charging opportunities, charging station availability, and the financial and tax incentives associated with EV ownership.

Most area NDEW events give the opportunity for attendees to experience a ride and drive of select EVs and various entertainment activities. For a list of local NDEW events, visit https://driveelectricweek.org/index.php or the Colorado Electric Vehicle Coalition (CEVC) events calendar at http://refuelcolorado.com/cevc.
