“Over the past two years, we've worked with Forth Mobility, the City of Charlotte, and the Centralina Regional Council to make this pilot possible. Charlotte stood out because of its commitment to sustainability and ensuring all communities benefit.”
“With Governor Cooper's administration's focus on the rapid and equitable shift to electric transportation, this innovative project will serve as a model for wider-scale EV sharing in underserved communities across the state. The Southern Alliance for Clean Energy has been advocating for centering equity in state electric transportation policies, plans, and programs. We are excited to roll up our sleeves with our partners and help get it done.”
“Installing an EV charger is like installing a clothes dryer. So it is a lot of power, but it's not a tremendous amount of power. It's just like your dryer.”
“So you're talking about very little energy being consumed by those components of the car. Almost all the energy being consumed by the battery is to move the electric vehicle down the road. That's what makes an electric vehicle so efficient.”
“There is an abundance of energy that's unused on the electrical grid at night, when 80% of all EV charging happens. And that's plenty of power to charge the country's EVs if we were all driving one.”
“So charging your EV at home, it's like buying 60 cents a gallon of gasoline at the gas station, it's just really, really cheap. And that's part of what makes buying an electric vehicle an economic advantage.”
