Regional Electric Vehicle (EV) Readiness Planning Program
ACFC, along with Georgia and South Carolina have participated in a DOE-funded Southeast Regional Electric Vehicle (EV) Readiness Planning Program. The purpose, in concert with the U. S. Department of Energy's EV Scorecard initiative, is to help communities assess their readiness for EV infrastructure.
