Tomorrow's Event: Charged Up - Everything You Need to Know about EV Charging

Noon – 1:00 p.m., Wednesday. Making the switch to an electric car can be intimidating if you're used to refueling with gasoline. Where will you charge? How much will it cost? How can you make sure you're always charged up? The good news is that charging an electric vehicle (EV) is easier than you might think once you know the basics. Join this hour-long webinar presented by the Green Energy Consumers Alliance to learn everything you need to know about EV charging so that you feel ready and confident to make your next car electric. There will be plenty of time to ask questions. To register for this Zoom event (required to participate), click on this link.
