The industry-led San Joaquin Valley Electric Vehicle Partnership was established in 2014. The partnership offers:
The SJVEVP appreciates the financial and in-kind support for the Best Drive EVer 2021 video stories.
The East Kern Air Pollution Control District provided grant funding to support a Best Drive EVer test drive event. The Tehachapi Apple Festival scheduled in October 2020 was cancelled due to Covid. The partnership decided to create three video stories – the Enthusiast, the Commuter, and the Traveler. The videos feature Kern County EV owners. They were filmed in Tehachapi, CA in May and June 2021. Additional footage for the traveler video was shot in and around Bakersfield, CA.
Kern Council of Governments provided funding and staff support.
The San Joaquin Valley Clean Cites program provided funding and staff support.
