The City of Orlando, along with Drive Electric Florida and the Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) are hosting this year's National Drive Electric Week. Please mark your calendars for September 25.  This event will be held at the Ace Café which is adjacent to the EV Recharge Mobility Hub being constructed on 129 West Robinson St in Orlando. I will be sending out reminders for this event and other NDEW events in Florida.

    Loved Chris’s presentation and am super excited for Orlando’s and St. Petersburg’s commitment toward the future of electric vehicles. Would love to share this webinar with Hillsborough County’s commissioners and Tampa’s mayor and City Council. Great job Chris!
