What is York Electric doing to study electric vehicles for its members?

  • Back in 2007, YEC began col­lect­ing data.
  • YEC also col­lab­o­rat­ed with Duke on their plans and data col­lec­tion; Duke ener­gy cur­rent­ly has one of the nation’s largest fleets of plug-in elec­tric vehi­cles and plug-in hybrid elec­tric cars for research and devel­op­ment pur­pos­es. This includes vehi­cles from Toy­ota, Tes­la, Ford, Gen­er­al Motors, Chrysler, Nis­san, and the Southeast’s first plug-in hybrid elec­tric util­i­ty “buck­et” truck.
  • In 2013, YEC devel­oped an over­all elec­tric vehi­cle plan to include beta sites for in-home charg­ers and spe­cial elec­tric rates to incen­tivize vehi­cle charg­ing on non-peak times.
  • In 2014, YEC imple­ment­ed an elec­tric-vehi­­cle rate.
