About the event
As gas prices continue to hit record highs, electric vehicles are appearing as an increasingly attractive option. According to Consumer Reports, the average electric vehicle owner who charges their vehicle at home saves $800–1,000 per year on average versus buying gasoline. Electric vehicles are also convenient, as they do not require oil changes and need far less maintenance than the typical ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles.
With this in mind, the Vernon County Energy District (VCED) is hosting its Third Annual Drive Electric Earth Day event on Saturday, April 16th. The event will begin at 9 am at the Viroqua Food Coop, and then will drive over in a mini-parade together to Sleepy Hollow to visit the latest EV charger installation in Viroqua.
