Your Data Can Expand Knowledge of ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ’s Electric Vehicles
ACEP developed a for ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ communities. The work was made possible by ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ Energy Authority funding for the ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ Electric Vehicle Working Group.
Using this calculator, users identify their communities and select a range of inputs on vehicle use (daily mileage, parked in a garage or outside, etc.) The output compares the EV’s energy costs and emissions to an internal combustion vehicle.
Data from EVs in ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ can help fill in the gaps in knowledge for energy use and performance in extreme cold temperatures. ACEP is currently gathering data on EV energy use in ÃÛèÖÊÓƵ. If you have an EV and are willing to share your data, contact Michelle Wilber at mmwilber@alaska.edu.
