Clearview Energy partners with ChargePoint to offer free EV charging

Clearview Energy, a leading residential supplier of 100% renewable energy in the US, has partnered with ChargePoint, the world’s largest electric vehicle (EV) charging network, to offer free EV charging at home for Clearview Energy’s customers.

The transportation sector accounted for 34% of all carbon emissions in 2015, making it a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions.

Further, a fundamental change in consumer purchasing and mobility behavior is crucial to any effort to reverse the global warming epidemic. The average across 2017 model EV’s is projected to be 114 Miles Per Gallon(equivalent), or MPG(e), in comparison to their non-EV counterparts at 40mpg.

“It’s time to embrace electric vehicles as the future, and to enjoy the benefits of a more stable, sustainable and less expensive mode of transportation,” said Frank McGovern, president of Clearview Energy. “We cannot leave the health of our planet and our communities to chance. It’s time to charge ahead, reduce our carbon footprint, and protect our planet.”

The partnership between Clearview Energy and ChargePointis available to residential electricity consumers in select markets across the US.

Under this new first-of-its-kind partnership, EV owners with a ChargePoint Home station will enjoy free vehicle charging. Charging costs are refunded to the consumer in the form of a reimbursement.
