Tennessee Tech is leading a project to develop a rural EV testbed to demonstrate and evaluate the applications of EVs over a diverse range of activities serving a rural and largely economically depressed UC region in TN to help fleet owners make right decision in EV adoption in rural areas before making significant financial investment. As part of this project, the project team will host an EV Ride-n-Drive and Show-n-Tell event on this Saturday (April 17th). Please see information below for the detailed date, time and location, and registration.
Date and Time: April 17th, 2021, 10 am – 3 pm CT
