A plug-in electric car now offers excellent performance and efficiency at an increasingly affordable cost. Braintree Drives Electric is an outreach program to inform the electric utility customer about the savings and benefits that come from choosing an electric car and charging it at home overnight.

As a Massachusetts Good Neighbor Energy Fund sponsor we want to announce that the Fund’s 2019 “Give The Gift of Warmth” campaign is now underway with a goal to raise $500,000 and provide energy assistance to more than 1,650 households. The Fund, which helps families in temporary crisis who do not qualify for federal or state assistance with the payment of their energy expenses, is currently open to all eligible candidates. The GNEF has raised more than $21.5 million and assisted over 88,750 households in need since its inception in 1985.

If you're at the South Shore Plaza be sure and stop by the EV showcase to learn about electric vehicle charging incentives, vehicle and charging rebates and special deals available to residents or Braintree. Braintree Drives Electric will be showcasing at the plaza in front of Macy's until March 31.
