A Legislative Voice
We recorded today’s episode via Zoom with David Koogler, Senior Vice President of Member Services & External Affairs to learn how REC works to advocate on behalf of the member-owners to ensure their voices are being heard.
David explained why it’s important for REC to engage with local legislators and elected officials and gave a few examples of their input on recent bills.
Electric Cars
Our conversation today with Joyce Bodoh, Government Affairs & Demand Response Administrator, with Rappahannock Electric Cooperative included discussion about electric cars (EV). REC purchased their first EV in 2017.
We talked about how they work, the benefits to our environment and our wallets, plus we discussed under what circumstances they might be a good fit for you and your family. Joyce told us about charging stations, who and how they should be installed at your home as well as apps to assist you in locating them during a trip.
