Seeing electric cars and charging stations during your travel through Door County is becoming more common. Electric vehicles are starting to become more popular and are expanding from passenger cars to things like rescue vehicles. The result of this change is more places needing to have electric vehicle charging stations available for public use. The village of Egg Harbor is one of the few local areas that already has a charging station put in place at the Kress Pavillion, along with the charging stations at the Destination Door County Visitor Center, Crossroads at Big Creek, and the Sturgeon Bay City Hall building. The Egg Harbor charging station specifically has four chargers with two of those chargers being Tesla exclusive and two of them being universal chargers. Some of the perks with having a charging station is that it allows people to put their car on a charger and as they wait can spend some time in local businesses around the area of the charging station. There is expected to be money set aside at the federal level for the construction of these charging stations across the U.S.  Jess Reinke the Property and Event Manager at the Kress Pavillion talks about where those funds might get sent locally and how the current chargers were funded  

Another unique aspect of the electric vehicle system is an app called “Plugshare” which allows the people who use electric cars to view the nearest charging stations.
