◊Electric Vehicle Alliance
Welcome to Maui Electric Vehicle Alliance
UHMC is the only university to receive one of 16 Department of Energy grants. Our project to get Maui ready for electric vehicles is further matched by our committed project partners. We formed this alliance to prepare a multi-year implementation plan for Maui County. Since officially launching this project on 1st November 2011, we have formed working groups to tackle issues of infrastructure, policy, visitor concerns, residential and local businesses, and education needs. As Maui is the number one tourist destination in the world (see Conde Nast) our plan is to give our visitors the ultimate EV paradise. Please follow our TWEETS (on the right) and In the Press for the latest news.
We aim to provide as much useful information as possible for the public through this website, which will be updated on a weekly basis. You can also get here by typing MauiEVA.org. Check the latest additions on our FAQ page. Follow us on Twitter and join us on Facebook
