Event Report
The presentation titled "Electric Vehicles: The Good and the Ugly" was co-organized by New Jersey Electric Vehicle Association (NJEVA) and Franklin Twp (Somerset County) Environmental Commission (FTEC) and it was presented at the council's chamber in the municipal building.The speakers were:
Ashley Lynn Qua, Policy Lead, NJEVA
Mario Caballero, VP, NJEVA
The presentation title was meant to attract audiences that have reservations against EVs so that they can hear the actual research that NJEVA has conducted to debunk the myth surrounding EVs.
As it was a nice day, we have not received as many audiences as we wished for. The speakers and moderator arrived with EVs plus another NJEVA member who position their Lucid Air in front of the building just before the presentation to welcome the attendees. All EVs were available for attendees at the conclusion of the presentation.
