This guide supports the education and incentives category of the EV Smart program, which was a regional pilot of the national Charging Smart program. In this category, communities are advised on strategies to include EVs on their website and provide relevant information to educate community members on EVs. This document was developed to help local government staff provide community members with information and resources about EVs on existing local government websites. Having easily accessible information for community members will help accelerate EV adoption at a local level.

This guide is broken into the following sections: developing EV website content, example websites, and a general template that all communities can use, followed by state-specific information for Michigan, Minnesota, and Ohio.
