Description

The electric vehicle (EV) Ride & Drive event will come to Fentress County Public Library on June 11, 2022. Join us for this interactive in-person ride and drive event. This Ride-AND-Drive event will give all participants a chance to test drive an EV first hand. Participants will also gain current information on charging, maintaining, and future use of EV’s. Finally, participants will have the chance to use an EV for two weeks free of charge. This event is part of Tennessee Tech’s EV project to develop a rural EV testbed to demonstrate and evaluate the applications of EVs over a diverse range of activities serving a rural and largely economically depressed Upper Cumberland region in TN, to help fleet owners make right decision in EV adoption in rural areas before making significant financial investment. This project will serve as a proof-of-concept implementation to support knowledge gaining, transfer, outreach and education on EVs for rural applications.
