You could soon have more places in Door County to charge your electric vehicles. Bloomberg predicts that electric vehicle sales could reach 13.6 million in 2023 after touching 10 million last year and 3.2 million in 2020. As a result, more places are offering places where they can charge their vehicles. There are currently 50 charging stations in Door County, but Destination Door County is enticing government bodies, non-profit organizations, and businesses to install or upgrade more of them with $1,000 mini-grants. Destination Door County Community Engagement Director Morgan Rusnak says this is just another way they are trying to benefit residents and visitors alike.
Destination Door County will offer eight mini-grants quarterly (32 total) for charging stations this year. The charging stations play a key role in the Destination Door County 2023 strategic plan, which identified sustainable developments as one of its key pillars to focus on in the future.
