Electric Co-ops Play Key Role in EV Deployment

Interested in transitioning to an electric vehicle? Electric cooperatives are investing in EV programs to help our members reach their energy goals. 

Many co-ops have implemented educational outreach programs and instituted EV and home charger rebate programs. Some provide home installation services and incentives. Here at PPEC, we are researching options like these and possibly event off-peak EV charging rates. 

Though public charging presents new challenges for managing the grid, it also provides opportunities. That’s why electric co-ops must be early partners in the evolving EV environment to ensure new public and fleet vehicle charging stations in co-op communities don’t jeopardize the delivery of the safe, affordable and reliable power on which you depend.

Look for the electric utility industry to be a major player in transforming economic sectors like transportation and agriculture as the need for more electricity grows. According to a National Academies of Science study, the transportation sector alone will require a 170% increase in electricity generation by 2050 — plus a three-fold expansion of the transmission grid. With electric vehicle use increasing, the successful buildout of robust EV charging infrastructure in rural America is critical.

As more and more EVs begin traveling highways and byways, expect more creative partnerships between electric co-ops, the federal government, and other stakeholders.

Are you considering transitioning to an electric vehicle?

Let us know by sending us a message here, or giving us your feedback about what you'd like to see from your co-op.
