A recent survey of electric vehicle owners in all 16 of Maine’s counties found that the majority of EV owners would recommend to their neighbors that they consider purchasing an EV.

We’ll discuss the EV outlook for Maine in light of Maine’s Climate Action Plan and the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act.
