Last year, the Colorado counties of Boulder, Adams and Denver banded together to offer discounted group purchase rates on solar panels and electric vehicles. The group purchase program was the first of its kind for EVs in the United States. Its promising results indicate that it shouldn’t be the last.
Over the course of four months, a partnership between the counties and one local Nissan dealership resulted in 248 Nissan LEAF sales—up from an average of 52 for that period before the program. A similar program in Larimer County netted 26 purchases per month, up from an average of just four. Even more impressive is the fact that according to a survey of participants, just 28 percent said they had planned to buy an EV before hearing about the program.
