TVA Announces Aggressive Electric Vehicle Goals by 2030

By 2030, the Tennessee Valley Authority wants all of its passenger cars and half of its pickup and light cargo trucks to be electric vehicles. TVA's large trucks will remain gas-powered for the immediate future.

The Tennessee Valley Authority, which helped bring electricity to southern Appalachia nearly a century ago, is now trying to help electrify the region's transportation system.

TVA outlined plans Wednesday to convert its entire fleet of passenger cars and at least half of its own pickup and light cargo trucks to electric vehicles by 2030. The shift from gas-powered to electric vehicles will comprise nearly 1,200 vehicles and is part of TVA's overall effort to encourage the electrification of transportation to help reduce carbon emissions in the Tennessee Valley.
