Listen "SEVU 62: An EV Helps a Community Power Through a Hurricane"
Episode Synopsis
This episode, Stu talks to Shelley McKechnie, a Asheville, North Carolina resident with a KIA EV6 who used a feature of that car to turn her car into a generator. She powered her refrigerator and, maybe even more importantly, a coffee maker to bring joy and hope to her neighbors through this horrific hurricane. Listen in to hear her talk about her story and how the resilient people of Western North Carolina are helping each other through these trying times.
