Dive Brief:Customers of Vermont’s Green Mountain Power can now test drive electric vehicles through a new partnership with Motor, a company working with utilities to accelerate the adoption of EVs and make the transition easier for their customers. “When our customers electrify, it actually drives down costs for every customer,” Tiana Smith, who leads electrification for GMP, said in an interview. “I think what's really exciting about the partnership with Motor is that people get to try this out ... with a really low commitment,” Smith said. Customers who sign up will receive a free Level 2 charger from GMP, with installation coordinated by Motor. In Indiana, customers can purchase the vehicle through Motor; Bahlke said that service is also planned for Vermont, though not immediately.
