On behalf of NFPA, East TN Clean Fuels, Virginia Clean Cities, and Central Florida Clean Cities, we want to thank your Clean Cities Coalition for wanting to host a ‘Ready for EVs’ workshop in your area! These virtual workshops will be a fantastic opportunity to bring a community with shared interests together to formulate an electrification plan for their community and discuss overcoming barriers to electrification.

A ‘Ready for EVs’ Workshop should look like this…

• Virtual group of people from a community with shared interests
• A facilitator from the Clean Cities Coalition
• One Subject Matter Expert (SME) from NFPA

The facilitator from the hosting Clean Cities Coalition will follow a “Facilitator’s Guide” throughout the workshop and the information will be aided by a slideshow presentation.

Workshop attendees will follow along during the session in a “Participant’s Guide” that they can either print off or type in on their own devices. Coalitions will need to encourage all participants to utilize the guide during the session in order for them to get everything they can from the session.

The workshop will last approximately two hours with a short break scheduled.

Expectations for Coalitions:

• Read through the Workshop Materials page and other provided materials
• Attempt to have at least 10 participants at the workshop
• Promote your workshop in the weeks leading up to it
• Facilitate the workshop the day of
