Charge Up Your Workplace
EV Charging Solutions for Businesses
Helping workplaces lower barriers for EV adoption.
Drive Clean Colorado is committed to ensuring the benefits of electrification are distributed equitably. Through our new Workplace Charging Initiative, called Watts@Work (W@W), we aim to help workplaces in Colorado lower the barriers to electric vehicle adoption by increasing the number of employers currently offering workplace charging to their employees.
Workplace charging is a great benefit to employers and employees.
It increases employee retention, promotes electric vehicle adoption and clean air, and attracts new customers.
No matter where you are in the evaluation or implementation process (including having already installed chargers), Drive Clean Colorado can provide you with benefits along the way, including:
FREE technical assistance
Coaching and support for various grants and incentives, including the Charge Ahead Colorado grant, which provides funding assistance for public Level 2 or DC fast charging
Promoting your workplace’s accomplishments
Hosting EV workshops and ride & drives for your employees
Help setting up your own employee EV club and other EV awareness activities
