Ocean State Clean Cities in partnership with Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, Rhode Island Office of Energy Resources, Rhode Island Department of Transportation, and Rhode Island Department of Health hosted an electric vehicle ride and drive at the 2018 Ocean State Construction and Equipment Show. It was a great opportunity to showcase plug-in vehicles and allowed municipal fleets to learn more about the technology and experience what it is like to drive an electric vehicle first hand. Rhode Island offers incentives for municipalities and public fleets to purchase charging stations and electric vehicles.
The Concrete Sidewalk Roundtable at Roger Williams Casino was well attended.
