Wilderness Trace Solar is Leading The Charge! 

Wilderness Trace Solar announces it has adopted a public electrical vehicle charging station from Evolve Kentucky –  a non-profit, grassroots organization founded in Louisville that gets organizations to sponsor and install EV chargers for free public use as a means to enhance the EV charging infrastructure throughout the state.  Installed in the parking lot at Wilderness Trace Solar on the corner of Stewarts Lane North and Highway 127, this charging station is available for drivers of electric vehicles (EV’s) and plug-in hybrids to top off their battery for free while they are visiting WTS or traveling through our community.  Wilderness Trace Solar will be hosting a community event and ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially unveil the charger very soon.      Wilderness Trace Solar is no stranger to the world of disruptive technologies and believes that EV’s will be driving the future.  “We know there are many EV drivers commuting and traveling down Highway 127 daily.  Installing a free, dual port J1772 EV charger here just makes sense.  EV drivers depend on the ability to charge when they plan their routes.  We want to keep the EVs moving forward but we also want them to stop in Danville.  We want to be part of the forward motion, future-thinking, tech-embracing renewable energy efforts being made right here at home.”

Wilderness Trace Solar learned about Evolve KY from their Office Manager, Laura Zaspel who is a member of the Lexington Chapter and drives an EV to work daily.  WTS has just hired Shannon Causey as their Technical Design and Sales team member – he is also an EVolveKy member and fellow EV driver.  Laura and Shannon are thrilled they can charge their EV’s with the solar ener gy powered by the Wilderness Trace Solar arrays.  “We need a sticker that says Running on Sunshine!”
