Recharge America is a nonprofit partner of REACH Strategies doing path breaking work to document the economic benefit for communities from adopting electric vehicles. The organization has shown that, on average, every EV in a community delivers over $1,000 per year in local economic development benefit. Using that as a starting point, Recharge America works to spotlight the strategies, stories, and initiatives that support capturing that benefit as quickly as possible.

The Recharge America website features a wealth of great information on electric vehicles and the different entities working to advance EV adoption. We’ve selected a few of their recent posts we think might be of interest to our audience.
