Communities across the region are invited to voice their views, experiences and ideas regarding Electric Vehicle uptake, and the sessions are each focused on a particular area of the Highlands:

Topics of conversation will include:

• What is 'EV' and why is this the vehicle of the future? - An introduction to Electric Vehicles
• Update on what's been happening - current infrastructure development and plans in Highlands and locally
• Help & advice for people interested in making the switch to EV
• Question and answer session - opportunity to pitch your questions and get involved in wider discussions about climate change and community sustainability.

The discussions will help inform the new Highland EV infrastructure strategy, due to be launched in 2021.
