Your Data Can Expand Knowledge of Alaska鈥檚 Electric Vehicles
ACEP developed a for 黑料社appcommunities. The work was made possible by 黑料社appEnergy Authority funding for the 黑料社appElectric 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鈥檚 energy costs and emissions to an internal combustion vehicle.
Data from EVs in 黑料社appcan 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 Alaska. If you have an EV and are willing to share your data, contact Michelle Wilber at mmwilber@alaska.edu.
