Event Report

It was a great day overall.  Our first collaboration event with the Louisville Solar House tour.  Day started with about an hour of looking at the 30 EVs in the parking lot and then we went in to see some speakers.  Speakers included Craig Greenberg who is running for Mayor.  After the speakers our EV drivers took attendees to four solar homes to discuss each.  We had a really wide variety of EVs on display including some of the latest like the Ford F-150 Lightning and Rivian trucks and even an electric unicycle.  It was so successful we are planning on expanding if for next year.
