Is EVRB making a difference?
EVRB's five committees and the Board of
Directors are proving that volunteers can and do make a difference:
Business Opportunities and Public Awareness
- garnered support for EVRB's participation in EVS-14, the largest international symposium
for electric vehicles held to date. An EVRB exhibit booth and hospitality suite reception
were the results of this committee's work - both efforts a success. EVRB received more
than 60 inquiries from companies expressing interest in relocating or developing
businesses in South Florida.
Charging Infrastructure Master Plan -
conceived, wrote and produced a guide for the effective integration of infrastructure into
the Broward community.
Codes, Safety, Training and Environment -
proposed and championed changes to
Broward's building codes to bring about the reality
of EV ready homes. Thanks to this committee, all Broward County emergency responders have
been introduced to specialized training related to incidents involving electric vehicles .
Additionally, County government has taken the lead in developing an objective
environmental position paper evaluating the impact of electric transportation on air
quality.
