Event Report

The Juneau Earth Day EV Road Rally was an awesome success where the Road Rally was led with Juneau's first electric bus carrying many local and State elected officials.  A record high sunny day in Juneau provided a great backdrop to show the community some of Juneau's growing electric vehicle fleet. Roughly 1 in every 40 vehicles registered in Juneau, Alaska is electric driven fueled by 100% renewable hydropower. 

There was much local social media, radio and print media buzz on the event.
