High energy at EV Expo

The latest in electric people movers were on show at the Noosa EV Expo & Street Fest on Sunday with the crowd demonstrating a high level of interest in alternative energy.

Experts were on hand to offer information and there were many people keen to listen, check out the 64 exhibitors or have a test drive of some of the scooters and bikes at the Zero Emissions Noosa (ZEN) event.

People were able to find out about ‘green loans’ to finance new and second hand EVs, sign up to test drive an electric car following the expo or listen to private EV owners talk about their vehicle experiences.

And the Junction cafes and restaurants provided the food and ambience on the day.

“With 33 per cent of Noosa Shire emissions from transport, the EV Expo, now in its fifth year, was a great place to look, listen and learn about sustainable transport options. By using electric cars, scooters and bikes, we can reduce our carbon footprint while living and working in the Noosa Bio- sphere. Cutting emissions is everyone’s re- sponsibility,“ Anne Kennedy, ZEN Inc. chair said.

Anyone wanting more was able to attend the EV 101 Forum at ‘the J’ on Monday.
