What is HG&E’s Connected Homes – EV Charger Program?</a>\n					<p>The Connected Homes – EV Charger program provides a financial incentive to HG&amp;E customers who reduce or postpone their EV charging during peak periods. By enrolling in this program, you will receive a $10/month bill credit and can also choose to receive either a free Level 2 (fast) charger or a $450 bill credit (if you already have an eligible EV charger). Please see the <a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Charging Rebates &amp; Incentives</a> page to learn more.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">2. What are peak periods?</a>\n					<p>Demand for electricity changes based on the time of day and season. Peak periods are key times when demand for electricity is highest. During these events, both the price of electricity and the percent of electricity coming from dirtier fossil fuels increase. By providing programs such as the Connected Homes – EV charger program, HG&amp;E is able to reduce demand during these critical peaks which helps maintain a low electric rate for customers while actively reducing our carbon footprint.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">3. What EV charger can I receive for free by enrolling in Connected Homes?</a>\n					<p>The free charger provided through the Connected Homes program is a Wi-Fi equipped Level 2 ChargePoint Home model. This charging unit is a $699 value. (Customer is responsible for having this charger installed by a licensed contractor).</p>\n												<a href=\"\">4. Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric vehicles, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only vehicles, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which EV you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before vehicle shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric car. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your car when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the car that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p><p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p><p>Finally, there are two options for taking your electric car on longer trips.</p><ul><li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li><li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an EV can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable gasoline powered model. This is due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about State and Federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric vehicle is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, EVs require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle, an electric will likely cost significantly less in total than even an average “economy” gasoline only model – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Can I expect good reliability from an electric vehicle??</a>\n					<p>Electric vehicles are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An EV’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the vehicle uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for its entire useful life. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a minute because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. Will the battery perform well for the life of the vehicle?</a>\n					<p>Every new EV’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. Does an electric vehicle provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric vehicle has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that EVs typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p>\n<p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">11. Is an electric vehicle as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric vehicles have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only model has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric vehicles are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">12. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric vehicle?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">13. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric vehicle and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric vehicles do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

In addition, most electric vehicles also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – providing a driving experience that hugs the corners!

A hybrid’s battery is typically only recharged from regenerative braking.&nbsp; When the vehicle slows, energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, an electric vehicle gets driving power from an electric motor, and that energy is from a battery that has been recharged from the grid or another external source. Electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to increase efficiency.</p>\n<p><strong>There are two types of electric vehicles, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p>\n<p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\"></p>\n<p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p>\n<p><strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station.

In addition, most electric vehicles also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – providing a driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.</li><li><strong>Reliability.</strong> “EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered vehicle,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. Additionally, electric vehicles all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance. <a href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric vehicle with over 400,000 miles!</a></li><li><strong>Convenience. </strong>An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now. You charge an electric vehicle like a cell phone — overnight, while you sleep. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an EV you wake up back on “full” and always ready to drive. For many drivers, the vehicle comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.</li><li><strong>Savings.</strong> HG&amp;E has some of the lowest electric rates in Massachusetts. Added to those low costs, electric vehicles offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and local incentives</a> are factored in, overall <a href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EVs cost less to own over a five year period compared to gasoline only vehicles.</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same drive time, and also because of significantly fewer maintenance requirements. This leads to significant savings in both time and money.</li></ol><p><strong style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</strong></p><p> The TCO includes the purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

Money spent on electricity is not sent out of the country to foreign economies. This means that money instead stays in the domestic or even our local economy, which in turn equates to better local economic prospects for all, and also more local job creation.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Energy security.</strong> Much of the global supply of oil also comes from unstable regions of the world, and/or from nations that our relationship is more adversarial than friendly. Our military must protect the global oil supply routes around the world at a cost to tax payers of billions of dollars annually.&nbsp; In addition to this ongoing security, we must also consider oil-related wars and sabotage or terrorism which remain a threat in part due to oil-related geopolitical issues. Increased EV adoption reduces these threats.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Human health. </strong>Not to be confused with the environmental concerns that affect our planet, this is about public health issues and associated costs which affect us all. Switching to an electric vehicle drastically reduces the pollution and other toxins from the drilling, transport, refining, and burning of petroleum. This is not only a societal concern for the well-being of everyone’s lungs, but also a financial concern as tailpipe and refinery emission related health problems have a hidden economic burden.&nbsp; We should also consider the benefits of reduced noise pollution, as a quietly running EV will make our environment much more peaceful overall.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Climate Responsibility.</strong> As confirmed by peer-reviewed analysis, EVs already reduce CO2 emissions that contribute to Climate Change impacts caused by AGW (Anthropogenic, or man-made Global Warming) by at least 50% (Source: <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a>), and by at least 70% with New England’s power mix</li>\n</ol>		\n			<h4>Holyoke Gas & Electric</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										99 Suffolk Street</br>Holyoke, MA 01040\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-536-9300\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-552-0392\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">						\n										customer_accounts@hged.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">						\n										www.hged.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>','Benefits to All','','inherit','closed','closed','','2671-revision-v1','','','2020-06-01 18:58:05','2020-06-01 18:58:05','',2671,'http://hgev.ene.org/2671-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5121,7,'2020-06-01 19:12:25','2020-06-01 19:12:25','<h2>Why Drive Electric</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/benefits-to-town-drivers/\" role=\"button\">\n						Benefits to HG&E Drivers\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/benefits-to-all/\" role=\"button\">\n						Benefits to All\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/faqs/\" role=\"button\">\n						FAQs\n					</a>\n			<h4>FAQS</h4>		\n												<a href=\"\">1. What is HG&E’s Connected Homes – EV Charger Program?</a>\n					<p>The Connected Homes – EV Charger program provides a financial incentive to HG&amp;E customers who reduce or postpone their EV charging during peak periods. By enrolling in this program, you will receive a $10/month bill credit and can also choose to receive either a free Level 2 (fast) charger or a $450 bill credit (if you already have an eligible EV charger). Please see the <a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Charging Rebates &amp; Incentives</a> page to learn more.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">2. What are peak periods?</a>\n					<p>Demand for electricity changes based on the time of day and season. Peak periods are key times when demand for electricity is highest. During these events, both the price of electricity and the percent of electricity coming from dirtier fossil fuels increase. By providing programs such as the Connected Homes – EV charger program, HG&amp;E is able to reduce demand during these critical peaks which helps maintain a low electric rate for customers while actively reducing our carbon footprint.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">3. What EV charger can I receive for free by enrolling in Connected Homes?</a>\n					<p>The free charger provided through the Connected Homes program is a Wi-Fi equipped Level 2 ChargePoint Home model. This charging unit is a $699 value. (Customer is responsible for having this charger installed by a licensed contractor).</p>\n												<a href=\"\">4. Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric vehicles, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only vehicles, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which EV you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before vehicle shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric vehicle. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your EV when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the vehicle that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p>\n<p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p>\n<p>Finally, there are two options for taking your EV on longer trips.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li>\n<li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric vehicle is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, EVs require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle, an electric will likely cost significantly less in total than even an average “economy” gasoline only model – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Can I expect good reliability from an electric vehicle??</a>\n					<p>Electric vehicles are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An EV’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the vehicle uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for its entire useful life. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a few minutes because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. Will the battery perform well for the life of the vehicle?</a>\n					<p>Every new EV’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. Does an electric vehicle provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric vehicle has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that EVs typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p>\n<p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">11. Is an electric vehicle as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric vehicles have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only model has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric vehicles are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">12. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric vehicle?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">13. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric vehicle and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric vehicles do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

A federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost to buy or lease an electric vehicle by as much as an additional $7,500. Note that the federal EV tax credit is calculated as part of your tax return filing for the year of purchase and therefore is received by you typically between Feb – April of the following year as part of any tax refund you would receive. For leased vehicles, the credit is taken by the leasing company and a portion of it passed on to the consumer as a lease cost reduction.</p><p>As a non-refundable type of tax credit, like a home mortgage interest deduction, eligibility is based on your annual tax liability, and you can’t roll over the credit to subsequent years. The total amount of the credit is also based on the battery size of the vehicle, so some plug-in hybrid electric vehicles may only qualify for a partial credit amount.</p><p>The credit also phases out per manufacturer after 200,000 vehicles are sold, so it’s important to verify the brand you choose to buy is still eligible.

In fact, it usually takes only around five seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric vehicle. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. Simply plug in your EV when you get home and it will typically re-charge back to full before you wake up in the morning. It’s the vehicle that “refuels” while you sleep! There are three charging levels to choose from, depending upon your needs and lifestyle.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL1.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 1 CHARGING<br>\"REGULAR\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home overnight</h2><p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-style: normal;\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Type Here...\">In the case of charging at Level 1, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet – no “charging station” required! The adapter comes with a cord and charger head that plugs into your EV. After initial set up, it is always ready and on standby.  Then it only takes a few seconds to plug in your EV each night. It really is that easy! Level 1 works best for plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) with small batteries, and/or people who do not drive much each day, as it adds range of between 3 and 6 miles per hour of charging, or approximately 50 miles overnight. From a very low charge, depending on the size of your EV\'s battery,  it can take more than 40 hours to charge to 90% and higher.</p>		\n										<img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-150x150.png 150w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2-300x300.png 300w, /wp-content/uploads/2018/11/ev-icons-02_LEVEL2.png 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" />											\n			<h2>LEVEL 2 CHARGING <br>\"PLUS\" speed</h2>		\n		<h2>Examples: home, workplace, destination</h2><p>A Level 2 charging system consists of a 240 volt wiring circuit from your electrical panel to a either a NEMA 14-50 outlet (much like the outlet into which you’d plug an electric stove or clothes dryer), or hard-wired to a wall-mounted EV charging station. The most common type of charging both private and public, Level 2 adds up to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type. This means that even the longest range EV will always get a full charge overnight using properly matched Level 2 equipment. From a low charge, an EV can be charged to 90% or higher in about 9 hours on a typical level 2 system. Some high amp systems can charge as quickly as 4 hours. Level 2 charging equipment can be purchased for as little as $200. HG&amp;E customers can get a <strong><a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">free charger by signing up for HG&amp;E\'s Connected Homes Program</a>.</strong> Typically, the installation only requires minor work by an electrician.

Therefore, most charging stops would be only minutes at a time. For example, depending on model and station some EVs are already capable of adding 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, and the next generation of vehicles (2020) and chargers will cut that charging time to less than half, or around 200 miles in just 10 minutes! Many new fast charging sites are being added every year. To get a handy online map and mobile app to find charging station near you, visit <strong><a href=\"https://www.plugshare.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PlugShare</a></strong> or install their mobile app. Level 3 charging is typically not meant for residential use. <br /></p><h1>About Public Charging Equipment and Networks​</h1><p>Charging in public can be a positive experience with a little bit of research and preparation ahead of time. There are many brands and models of chargers available publicly, as well as many different charging networks both nationally and regionally. There are basically two types of stations:</p><ol><li><strong>Smart charging stations</strong>, also known as networked charging stations or connected stations. These typically require a membership, a card, or an app to access. They may or may not have a fee.</li><li><strong>Non-networked charging stations</strong>. These do not require any membership to activate, and usually are free and just connect when you plug in. On occasion they require an access code.</li></ol><p>Gathering information in advance of a trip(for example by using <a href=\"https://www.plugshare.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">PlugShare</a> or another online resource or app) can help you explore what public charging is near you. </p>		\n			<h4>Holyoke Gas & Electric</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										99 Suffolk Street</br>Holyoke, MA 01040\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-536-9300\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-552-0392\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">						\n										customer_accounts@hged.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">						\n										www.hged.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>','Car Charging Basics','','inherit','closed','closed','','2886-revision-v1','','','2020-06-01 19:31:38','2020-06-01 19:31:38','',2886,'http://hgev.ene.org/2886-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5131,7,'2020-06-01 19:39:30','2020-06-01 19:39:30','<h2>Charging Guide</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/car-charging-basics/\" role=\"button\">\n						Vehicle Charging Basics\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\" role=\"button\">\n						Charging Equipment​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\" role=\"button\">\n						Home Installation Help​\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\" role=\"button\">\n						Charging Rebates & Incentives\n					</a>\n			<h3>Rebates and Incentives (Charging)</h3>		\n		<article>\n<section data-id=\"b868417\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n<h2><b style=\"font-size: 16px;\">INCENTIVE UPDATE:</b>&nbsp;Taxpayers once again qualify for a 30% Federal rebate (up to $1,000) on costs associated with the installation of an EV charging station through 12/31/2020.

Almost all of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion.&nbsp;A very small fraction of energy can be acquired by recharging the batteries through regenerative braking.&nbsp; This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.</p>\n<p>On the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.&nbsp; All electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to increase efficiency.</p>\n<p><strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.</p>\n<p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\"></p>\n<p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p>\n<p><strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p>\n<p><strong>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles.</strong> When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p>		\n			<h4>Holyoke Gas & Electric</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										99 Suffolk Street</br>Holyoke, MA 01040\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-536-9300\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-552-0392\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">						\n										customer_accounts@hged.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">						\n										www.hged.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>','Electric Car Basics','','inherit','closed','closed','','44-revision-v1','','','2020-06-01 20:07:25','2020-06-01 20:07:25','',44,'http://hgev.ene.org/44-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5137,7,'2020-06-01 20:12:30','2020-06-01 20:12:30','<h2>Buying Guide</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/electric-car-basics/\" role=\"button\">\n						Electric Vehicle Basics\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/compare-cars/\" role=\"button\">\n						Compare Vehicles\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\" role=\"button\">\n						Vehicle Rebates & Incentives\n					</a>\n			<h3>Compare Vehicles</h3>		\n		<p>Which EV you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need.

Visit the <a href=\"https://mor-ev.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>MOR-EV</strong> <strong>website</strong></a> to learn more and fill out an application!</p><h1 style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-style: normal;\">GET A UP TO $7,500 BACK ON TAXES!!</h1><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit</strong>. A federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost to buy or lease an electric vehicle by as much as an additional $7,500. Note that the federal EV tax credit is calculated as part of your tax return filing for the year of purchase and therefore is received by you typically between Feb – April of the following year as part of any tax refund you would receive. For leased vehicles, the credit is taken by the leasing company and a portion of it passed on to the consumer as a lease cost reduction.</p><p>As a non-refundable type of tax credit, like a home mortgage interest deduction, eligibility is based on your annual tax liability, and you can’t roll over the credit to subsequent years. The total amount of the credit is also based on the battery size of the vehicle, so some plug-in hybrid electric vehicles may only qualify for a partial credit amount.</p><p>The credit also phases out per manufacturer after 200,000 vehicles are sold, so it’s important to verify the brand you choose to buy is still eligible.

It derives some of its driving power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and small battery pack. All of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion. However, unlike a non-hybrid vehicle, some of this energy is recovered by recharging the batteries through&nbsp;regenerative braking.&nbsp; This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>On the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.&nbsp; Plug-in electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to improve their overall driving efficiency.</p>\n<p><strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.</p>\n<p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\"></p>\n<p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p>\n<p><strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station.

You charge an electric vehicle like a cell phone — overnight, while you sleep. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an EV you wake up back on “full” and always ready to drive. For many drivers, the vehicle comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.</li>\n 	<li><strong>Savings.</strong> HG&amp;E has some of the lowest electric rates in Massachusetts. Added to those low costs, electric vehicles offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and local incentives</a> are factored in, overall <a href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EVs cost less to own over a five year period compared to gasoline only vehicles.</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same drive time, and also because of significantly fewer maintenance requirements. This leads to significant savings in both time and money.</li>\n</ol>\n<strong style=\"font-size: 16px;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</strong>\n\nThe TCO includes the purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

Money spent on electricity is not sent out of the country to foreign economies. This means that money instead stays in the domestic or even our local economy, which in turn equates to better local economic prospects for all, and also more local job creation.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong>Energy security.</strong> Much of the global supply of oil also comes from unstable regions of the world, and/or from nations that our relationship is more adversarial than friendly. Our military must protect the global oil supply routes around the world at a cost to tax payers of billions of dollars annually.&nbsp; In addition to this ongoing security, we must also consider oil-related wars and sabotage or terrorism which remain a threat in part due to oil-related geopolitical issues. Increased EV adoption reduces these threats.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong>Human health. </strong>Not to be confused with the environmental concerns that affect our planet, this is about public health issues and associated costs which affect us all. Switching to an electric vehicle drastically reduces the pollution and other toxins from the drilling, transport, refining, and burning of petroleum. This is not only a societal concern for the well-being of everyone’s lungs, but also a financial concern as tailpipe and refinery emission related health problems have a hidden economic burden.&nbsp; We should also consider the benefits of reduced noise pollution, as a quietly running EV will make our environment much more peaceful overall.</li>\n</ol>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong>Climate Responsibility.</strong> As confirmed by peer-reviewed analysis, EVs already reduce CO2 emissions that contribute to Climate Change impacts caused by AGW (Anthropogenic, or man-made Global Warming) by at least 50% (Source: <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a>), and by at least 70% with New England’s power mix</li>\n</ol>		\n			<h4>Holyoke Gas & Electric</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										99 Suffolk Street</br>Holyoke, MA 01040\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-536-9300\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-552-0392\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">						\n										customer_accounts@hged.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">						\n										www.hged.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>','Benefits to All','','inherit','closed','closed','','2671-revision-v1','','','2020-06-02 21:12:25','2020-06-02 21:12:25','',2671,'http://hgev.ene.org/2671-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5152,5,'2020-06-02 21:16:12','2020-06-02 21:16:12','<h2>Why Drive Electric</h2>		\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/benefits-to-town-drivers/\" role=\"button\">\n						Benefits to HG&E Customers\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/benefits-to-all/\" role=\"button\">\n						Benefits to All\n					</a>\n			<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/faqs/\" role=\"button\">\n						FAQs\n					</a>\n			<h4>FAQS</h4>		\n												<a href=\"\">1. What is HG&E’s Connected Homes – EV Charger Program?</a>\n					<p>The Connected Homes – EV Charger program provides a financial incentive to HG&amp;E customers who reduce or postpone their EV charging during peak periods. By enrolling in this program, you will receive a $10/month bill credit and can also choose to receive either a free Level 2 (fast) charger or a $450 bill credit (if you already have an eligible EV charger). Please see the <a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Charging Rebates &amp; Incentives</a> page to learn more.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">2. What are peak periods?</a>\n					<p>Demand for electricity changes based on the time of day and season. Peak periods are key times when demand for electricity is highest. During these events, both the price of electricity and the percent of electricity coming from dirtier fossil fuels increase. By providing programs such as the Connected Homes – EV charger program, HG&amp;E is able to reduce demand during these critical peaks which helps maintain a low electric rate for customers while actively reducing our carbon footprint.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">3. What EV charger can I receive for free by enrolling in Connected Homes?</a>\n					<p>The free charger provided through the Connected Homes program is a Wi-Fi equipped Level 2 ChargePoint Home model. This charging unit is a $699 value. (Customer is responsible for having this charger installed by a licensed contractor).</p>\n												<a href=\"\">4. Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric vehicles, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only vehicles, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which EV you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before vehicle shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric vehicle. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your EV when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the vehicle that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p>\n<p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p>\n<p>Finally, there are two options for taking your EV on longer trips.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li>\n<li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an EV can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable gasoline powered model. This is due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about State and Federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric vehicle is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, EVs require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle, an electric will likely cost significantly less in total than even an average “economy” gasoline only model – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Can I expect good reliability from an electric vehicle??</a>\n					<p>Electric vehicles are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An EV’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the vehicle uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for its entire useful life. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a few minutes because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. Will the battery perform well for the life of the vehicle?</a>\n					<p>Every new EV’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. Does an electric vehicle provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric vehicle has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that EVs typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p>\n<p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">11. Is an electric vehicle as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric vehicles have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only model has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric vehicles are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">12. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric vehicle?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">13. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric vehicle and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric vehicles do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.

It derives some of its driving power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and small battery pack. All of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion. However, unlike a non-hybrid vehicle, some of this energy is recovered by recharging the batteries through&nbsp;regenerative braking.&nbsp; This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.&nbsp;\n\nOn the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.&nbsp; Plug-in electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to improve their overall driving efficiency.\n\n<strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.\n\n<img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\">\n\nPHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.\n\n<strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.\n\n<strong>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles.</strong> When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.\n<h4>Holyoke Gas &amp; Electric</h4>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n										99 Suffolk Street\nHolyoke, MA 01040</li>\n 	<li>\n										413-536-9300</li>\n 	<li>\n										413-552-0392</li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">\ncustomer_accounts@hged.com\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">\nwww.hged.org\n</a></li>\n</ul>\n<h4>Website</h4>\n<ul>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n</a></li>\n 	<li>\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n</a></li>\n</ul>','Electric Vehicle Basics','','inherit','closed','closed','','44-revision-v1','','','2020-06-04 17:10:53','2020-06-04 17:10:53','',44,'https://hgev.ene.org/44-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5156,6,'2020-06-04 18:23:27','2020-06-04 18:23:27','<h2>Partner Dealerships</h2>		\n												<a href=\"\">Why car shop in Holyoke for your next new or used EV?

It derives some of its driving power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and small battery pack. All of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion. However, unlike a non-hybrid vehicle, some of this energy is recovered by recharging the batteries through&nbsp;regenerative braking.&nbsp; This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.&nbsp;</p>\n<p>On the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.&nbsp; Plug-in electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to improve their overall driving efficiency.</p>\n<p><strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.</p>\n<p><img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\"></p>\n<p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily.

It derives some of its driving power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and small battery pack. All of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion. However, unlike a non-hybrid vehicle, some of this energy is recovered by recharging the batteries through regenerative braking.  This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.\nOn the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.  Plug-in electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to improve their overall driving efficiency.\n<strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.\n<img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\" />\nPHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.\n<strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.\n<strong>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles.</strong> When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.\n<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-family: \'Open Sans\', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</p>\n<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-family: \'Open Sans\', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">The TCO includes the purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

It derives some of its driving power from a conventional gasoline engine and some from an electric motor and small battery pack. All of its energy is generated from gasoline combustion. However, unlike a non-hybrid vehicle, some of this energy is recovered by recharging the batteries through regenerative braking.  This occurs when the vehicle slows and energy is put back into the battery, which results in better average mpg.\nOn the other hand, a plug-in electric vehicle gets its driving power exclusively from an electric motor, and that energy is generated from a larger battery pack that has been recharged from the grid or another external source.  Plug-in electric vehicles also use regenerative braking to improve their overall driving efficiency.\n<strong>There are two types of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug-in hybrid electrics (PHEVs)</strong> which can first run entirely on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline to recharge the battery when it gets low.\n<img src=\"/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/HEV_PHEV_BEV_Kendall.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1195\" height=\"844\" />\nPHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.\n<strong>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model.</strong> They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.\n<strong>Today’s PHEVs a have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles.</strong> When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.\n<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-family: \'Open Sans\', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">What is vehicle Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)?</p>\n<p style=\"font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-family: \'Open Sans\', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400;\">The TCO includes the purchase price of an asset plus the costs of operation<em style=\"font-size: 16px;\">.

Through this program, customers are rewarded for using less energy during peak periods, when energy prices are the highest. </p><p><strong>Program Rewards</strong></p><p>Participating customers have the opportunity to earn <strong>HG&amp;E monthly bill credits ($10/month)</strong>. In addition, customers can choose one of the following: </p><ul><li><strong>Free Level 2 Charger</strong>: By enrolling in this program, customers will have the ability to receive a free Wi-Fi enabled Level 2 Charger, which charges an electric vehicle in 4-8 hours, in exchange for allowing HG&amp;E to control the charger during peak times.</li><li><strong>$450 Bill Credit:</strong> For residential customers with an existing eligible Level 2 Charger, HG&amp;E is offering a one-time $450 bill credit for opting into this program. These customers are required to prove their EV charging schedule is set outside of peak hours.</li></ul><p><strong>How does it work?</strong></p>If you enroll in the Connected Homes – EV Charger Program, HG&amp;E will have the ability to manage or monitor the energy used by your home EV charger. Customers who receive a free Level 2 Charger are required to provide HG&amp;E access to the device through a Wi-Fi connection. HG&amp;E will control customer charging during peak hours (see seasonal schedule below). During these times, if your EV is plugged in, charging will be reduced to a slower rate. As soon as the period has ended, your charger will automatically reset and charge at full speed. Customers are responsible for installation of the Level 2 Charger. <p>Customers with an existing Level 2 home charger agree to schedule EV charging outside of peak hours (see seasonal schedule below). HG&amp;E will have the ability to monitor and verify that charging is occurring outside of these windows through HG&amp;E\'s Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). </p><p><strong>Seasonal Peak Hours</strong></p><p>Below are the seasonal hours customers will be required to curtail their EV charging*:</p><ul><li>Summer (May 1 - October 31) – Weekdays 2:00 PM to 8:00 PM</li><li>Winter (November 1 - April 30) – Weekdays 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM</li></ul><p>*Additional emergency hours may occur outside these windows. HG&amp;E will notify customer via preferred electronic method prior to such hours.</p><p>The Connected Homes - EV Charger Program allows customers to participate in HG&amp;E’s grid transformation efforts with their own equipment and receive credits for doing so, while also helping to drive down costs for all HG&amp;E customers.</p><h2><b style=\"font-size: 16px;\">INCENTIVE UPDATE:</b> Taxpayers once again qualify for a 30% Federal rebate (up to $1,000) on costs associated with the installation of an EV charging station through 12/31/2020.

In addition, most electric vehicles also offer inherently better handling and ride due to their superior weight distribution and low center of gravity – providing a driving experience that hugs the corners! And finally, the ride is further improved by reduced overall cabin noise and less vibration.</li><li><strong>Reliability.</strong> “EVs have 10-times fewer moving parts than a gasoline powered vehicle,” says advocacy group Plug in America. This means lower maintenance requirements and fewer things that can mechanically wear out or fail, which results in higher long-term reliability. Additionally, electric vehicles all have regenerative brakes, the brake pads and rotors don’t wear as quickly, and may even last the life of the vehicle with little or no maintenance. <a href=\"https://insideevs.com/chevy-volt-400000-miles-odometer-no-noticeable-battery-degradation/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read about the plug-in electric vehicle with over 400,000 miles!</a></li><li><strong>Convenience. </strong>An EV provides far greater convenience than the way we drive and fuel now. You charge an electric vehicle like a cell phone — overnight, while you sleep. It’s sort of like having a gas pump in your garage, but without the mess. So, with an EV you wake up back on “full” and always ready to drive. For many drivers, the vehicle comes with all you need to get started, as charging can be done with the included adapter and a standard accessible outlet that most households already have in their garage or on the side of their house near a driveway.</li><li><strong>Savings.</strong> HG&amp;E has some of the lowest electric rates in Massachusetts. Added to those low costs, electric vehicles offer long term cost savings that often can’t be beat. In many cases, after <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">federal, state and local incentives</a> are factored in, overall <a href=\"https://cleantechnica.com/2018/02/05/new-study-finds-electric-vehicles-offer-lowest-total-cost-ownership/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">EVs cost less to own over a five year period compared to gasoline only vehicles.</a> This is in part because the average long-term price of electricity is less than half what gasoline would cost for the same drive time, and also because of significantly fewer maintenance requirements. This leads to significant savings in both time and money.</li></ol>		\n			<h4>Holyoke Gas & Electric</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n										99 Suffolk Street</br>Holyoke, MA 01040\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-536-9300\n									</li>\n								<li >\n										413-552-0392\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"customer_accounts@hged.com\">						\n										customer_accounts@hged.com\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://www.hged.com/\">						\n										www.hged.org\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>\n			<h4>Website</h4>		\n					<ul>\n							<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/\">					Home\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/why-drive-electric\">					Why Drive Electric\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/\">					Buying Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/\">					Charging Guide\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/blog/\">					Blog\n											</a>\n									</li>\n								<li >\n					<a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">					Contact\n											</a>\n									</li>\n						</ul>','Benefits to HG&E Customers','','inherit','closed','closed','','2624-revision-v1','','','2020-06-04 21:27:29','2020-06-04 21:27:29','',2624,'http://hgev.ene.org/2624-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(5186,6,'2020-06-05 17:00:52','2020-06-05 17:00:52','<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p>\n<p>Support Local Businesses by considering an EV from a car dealership right in Holyoke.

What are peak periods?</a>\n					<p>Demand for electricity changes based on the time of day and season. Peak periods are key times when demand for electricity is highest. During these events, both the price of electricity and the percent of electricity coming from dirtier fossil fuels increase. By providing programs such as the Connected Homes – EV charger program, HG&amp;E is able to reduce demand during these critical peaks which helps maintain a low electric rate for customers while actively reducing our carbon footprint.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">3. What EV charger can I receive for free by enrolling in Connected Homes?</a>\n					<p>The free charger provided through the Connected Homes program is a Wi-Fi equipped Level 2 ChargePoint Home model. This charging unit is a $699 value. (Customer is responsible for having this charger installed by a licensed contractor).</p>\n												<a href=\"\">4. Will it go enough miles per charge for me?</a>\n					<p>Yes! This is in part because there are two types of electric vehicles, or plug in electrified vehicles (PEVs): Battery electrics (BEVs) which run on electricity only, and plug in hybrid electrics (PHEVs) which first run on electricity from the battery for a shorter range (often the distance of a daily commute, or more), then seamlessly switch to a full tank of gasoline if the battery gets low.</p><p>PHEVs therefore will always have the range you need, and can be driven and fueled just like the vehicle you drive now. Today’s BEVs have more range than 90% of commuters and others drive daily. Some models are available in either BEV or PHEV.</p><p>Most BEVs have a range of between 114 and 315 miles depending upon model. They must be recharged when the battery gets low, and can be done slowly (typically overnight at home while you sleep) or more quickly using a public fast charging station. But unlike gasoline only vehicles, both BEVs and PHEVs can be “refueled” (charged) at a variety of locations where drivers might already be planning to drive to and park at. But mostly, they are <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">charged conveniently at home, overnight while you sleep</a>.</p><p>Today’s PHEVs have a battery range between 14 and 114 miles, and then typically a full tank of gasoline range, 300-500+ miles. When operating in hybrid mode, they also get better gas mileage than comparable gasoline only vehicles.</p><p>Therefore, which EV you’ll want depends on how many miles you typically drive per day, what types of long trips you plan to take in your vehicle, and how much passenger and cargo space you need. Answering these three personal questions before vehicle shopping will also lead you to the electric models that best fit your lifestyle and needs.

How much of my time will it take to charge?</a>\n					<p>It usually takes only around 5 seconds of your time to “refuel” your electric vehicle. Why? Because most charging (over 85%, according to EV driver polling) happens at home, overnight, while the driver sleeps. You just plug in your EV when you get home and it’s typically re-charged back to full before you even wake up the next morning. It’s the vehicle that “refuels” while you sleep! In many cases, all you need is the included charging adapter and a standard outlet (also known as Level 1 charging) to recharge for the daily range you need – no “charging station” required! It really is that easy. Check out our Charging Guide section to learn about <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/charging-equipment/\">Charging Equipment</a>, get <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/home-installation-help/\">Home Installation Help</a>, and discover what <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/charging-guide/rebates-and-incentives-charging/\">Rebates and Incentives</a> are available to lower the cost of purchase and installation.</p>\n<p>The second most common place to charge is at the workplace. Since most people are at work for 7 or more hours, the time to charge is not a concern. The third most common charging happens at a place you can catch an “Opportunity Charge”: Typically, a shopping area, restaurant, or recreation destination where you’d already planned to visit for one or more hours. Already numbering in the tens of thousands, more Workplace Charging and Opportunity Charging sites are being added every year. These are usually what’s known as Level 2 charging sites which add 12 to 70 miles of range per hour, depending upon the vehicle and station type.</p>\n<p>Finally, there are two options for taking your EV on longer trips.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Choosing a PHEV (Plug in Hybrid Electric) means you can drive and refuel on any trip just as you do now, conveniently at the next gas station rest stop. But you can still charge up as well, whenever it’s convenient to do so. It’s the best of both worlds, as you can still drive electric miles every day while take very long trips any day.</li>\n<li>Choosing a BEV (Battery only Electric) means you’ll want to look for fast charging (also known as Level 3) along your route and/or overnight destination charging (such as hotels that have charging) where you’ll stay or use another family vehicle could be used or you plan your trips to look for fast chargers along the route. Today’s fast charging can add from 60 up to 180 miles of range in under 30 minutes, depending on model and station. Recently automakers are offering more and more higher range BEVs. Thousands of fast chargers and destination chargers are being added every year, and the next generation of fast charging coming in just a few years will add twice the range in half the time!

What would my cost to buy or lease be?</a>\n					<p>In Massachusetts, an EV can be as affordable to buy or lease as a comparable gasoline powered model. This is due to the <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">available state and federal incentives</a>, combined with special local deals this Drive Electric program can connect you with.</p><p><strong>Massachusetts State Rebate.</strong> The Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) Program issues rebates to help MA consumers purchase or lease a new vehicle. Any Massachusetts resident is eligible for a rebate of up to $2,500 after the purchase or lease an eligible electric vehicle.</p><p><strong>Federal EV Tax Credit.</strong> The federal government also offers a tax credit for qualifying electric vehicles and qualifying tax payers. The cost to buy or lease any also depends most on your personal tax situation. This is because a federal EV tax credit may reduce your net cost by as much as an additional $7,500.</p><p><strong>To learn more details about State and Federal EV incentives, visit our <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/buying-guide/rebates-incentives-vehicles/\">vehicle Rebates and Incentives page</a>.</strong></p><p><strong>Local group buy and dealer incentive programs.</strong> There are additional local incentives that can lower the monthly payment costs even further, sometimes to under $200 a month and with no money down. In some cases, combined incentives can mean up to $15,000 off MSRP.

How much would I benefit in fuel and maintenance savings?</a>\n					<p>On average, the cost of electricity to charge and drive an electric vehicle is significantly lower than gasoline. In areas served by a municipal electric utility, the average cost of this electric “fuel” is even lower! In addition, EVs require far less regular maintenance than their gasoline only cousins, saving you hundreds more due to fewer or no oil changes, filters, belts, etc. Even the brakes on electrics last longer, thanks to something called regenerative braking.</p><p>In fact, over the life of the vehicle, an electric will likely cost significantly less in total than even an average “economy” gasoline only model – by thousands of dollars! Just how much you’ll save depends on how many miles you drive a year and what vehicle you select. For a free assessment of your estimated personal cost savings, <a href=\"https://hgev.ene.org/contact/\">contact us</a>.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">8. Can I expect good reliability from an electric vehicle??</a>\n					<p>Electric vehicles are often actually more reliable on average than their gasoline only counterparts. An EV’s motor has basically just one moving part, and most of the rest of the vehicle uses solid state electronic devices with no moving parts that require little or no maintenance for its entire useful life. Therefore, EVs require far less scheduled maintenance and are inherently more reliable because there are just few mechanical systems to maintain or that could break down. EVs still require an annual safety inspection, but this only takes a few minutes because there is no exhaust system to analyze.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">9. Will the battery perform well for the life of the vehicle?</a>\n					<p>Every new EV’s battery carries a minimum replacement warranty of 8 years or 100,000 miles. Several brands of plug-in electrics (BEVs and PHEVs) are already proving real world that they in fact will perform very well for hundreds of thousands of miles, and even go beyond the warranty period while showing very little to even no noticeable loss of the original usable electric range.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">10. Does an electric vehicle provide me with enough driving power?</a>\n					<p>The amount of sheer acceleration that an electric vehicle has will vary from model to model, but the universal truth is that EVs typical have more instant power off the line than a gasoline only equivalent – in fact, often by 50% or more. This is because an electric motor has more of something called torque, that get-up-and-go force.</p>\n<p>To really experience the first-hand the unique thrill of driving electric, attend one of our upcoming Ride &amp; Drive events or sign up for a no sales pressure test drive with one of our local EV Ambassadors.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">11. Is an electric vehicle as safe as the car I drive now?</a>\n					<p>Most electric vehicles have an overall 5-star crash safety rating from the NHTSA. Any high voltage wires are colored bright orange, and most manufacturers install battery kill switches in easily accessible locations on their vehicles. First responders regularly complete training on hybrid and electric vehicles to ensure they know how to handle them. While any vehicle contains a large amount of potentially hazardous and/or flammable energy in its “fuel” system, a typical gasoline only model has a greater amount of potential energy and higher volatility. In fact, a 2017 NHTSA study concluded the propensity and severity of fires and explosions from battery electric vehicles are “expected to be less because of the much smaller amounts of flammable solvent released and burning in a catastrophic failure situation.” (Lithium-ion Battery Safety Issues for Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles, NHTSA, 2017)</p>\n												<a href=\"\">12. How much lower are the emissions from driving an electric vehicle?</a>\n					<p>According to EPA power plant data for New England electricity generation, driving electric already reduces carbon emissions by at least 70% versus driving a comparable gasoline only vehicle. Emissions impacts have also been assessed independently as significantly lower by several prominent institutions. To estimate the emissions equivalent of an EV charged where you live, try out this <a href=\"https://www.ucsusa.org/clean-vehicles/electric-vehicles/ev-emissions-tool\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">“How Clean is <em>Your</em> Electric Vehicle</a>” tool provided by the Union of Concerned Scientists.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">13. What are the environmental impacts from manufacturing an electric vehicle and its battery?</a>\n					<p>The <a href=\"http://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/attach/2015/11/Cleaner-Cars-from-Cradle-to-Grave-full-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Union of Concerned Scientists</a> concluded in its 2015 analysis that even accounting for the impacts of battery manufacturing, EVs already reduce life cycle emissions by at least 50%. While any manufactured product has a variety of potential environmental and social impacts, the batteries used in electric vehicles do not contain any toxic materials nor any rare-earth metals, and are increasingly being incorporated into end of automotive life reuse and/or recycling programs. In addition, automakers and battery manufacturers are increasing their supply chain diligence to ensure that battery raw materials are responsibly sourced from areas with ethical labor and environmental practices.
