Happy EV Loan

  Richard and Sherrill Stenson – EV loan January 10-17, 2019 We had such a good experience driving the Chevy Spark for our EV loan.  We were amazed at how quiet it was and convenient to drive.  We took it up to Crested Butte and left it charging at the station by the tennis court while we caught a movie, and it gave us plenty of juice to make our trip back home to Gunnison.  We took it out cross country skiing, and the skis fit just fine in the car.  We would love to own one of these little EV’s and would like to explore the option of creating a local co-op of potential EV owners who would like to go in together on a vehicle and share in the use.  Thank you so much GCEA for the opportunity to change our thinking about EV driving and ownership!

Another Satisfied Member

Another member is satisfied with their EV loan! Krista Hildebrandt had some great comments to say about her week with Spark-e! I had so much fun driving the little Spark – I called it my “meep meep” car all week since it was small, cute and zippy.  I mostly drove it around Crested Butte, from my house to the mountain where I work for CBMR Ski Patrol.  In my free time, I loaded up my dog and my cross country skis to head out for some adventure and everything fit just fine inside the EV.  Even with the cold weather, I was able to keep the car plugged in at night and fully charged for me to drive the next day.  I fully enjoyed my EV driving experience, and hope I can get one of my own someday! If you are in GCEA's area, please give us a call to get on the loaner list!

Hello,  As some of you might know, over the past couple years, Gunnison County Electric Association in Gunnison, Colorado developed an electric vehicle (EV) program. In 2015 we started providing public EV charging. In 2016, GCEA bought a used 2014 Chevrolet Spark EV (Spark-e) to provide a driving experience for members. Studies suggest that exposure to electric vehicles increases acceptance. Over the last two years, GCEA introduced the electric vehicle concept by sharing the Chevy Spark within the local communities. We held an EV rally, attended the local car show and simply drove it around town.  Our most recent idea, and as a way to further introduce and educate people about EVs, is to loan Spark-e out for a week at a time. This has been such a hit with our members that there is a waiting list.  In March of 2018, GCEA bought a 2018 Chevy Bolt to continue growing the electric vehicle program. The Bolt program will be different from our Spark-e program bec...
