Where's The Raffle Money Going?
We want to supercharge the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to build out robust green infrastructure in our community. For just $200, the proceeds from the raffle will fund our big vision of a world with non-polluting, carbon-free, renewable energy for all.
- Solar Arrays
- Widely available Level 2 EV Chargers
- Assisting with the purchase of EVs to electrify public works and police fleets
- Upgrading low-income residences to lower energy burden and spread the fruits of beneficial electrification
In short, we want to become the most electrified community in America, and then teach others how to get there.
The EAC is a feisty local environmental policy and advocacy nonprofit in the beautiful mountains of western North Carolina. Our efforts have spearheaded the creation of an Environmental Sustainability Board (ESB) in our community and the adoption of net zero emissions by 2050 by several regional municipalities.
We are all in on the transition to a clean economy that leaves no one behind. Join us in building a clean energy future, today!

Is Rivian part of the NACS (Tesla) network of chargers?
Yes. Rivian entered into an agreement with Tesla, and in April, 2024, Rivian owners will be able to access Tesla Superchargers, also known as SAE J3400 or North American Charging Standard (NACS). This development effectively doubles available DC fast chargers overnight, and it gives Rivian access to Tesla’s reliable and expansive network of superchargers.
