Our Environmental Supervisor Logan MacDonald and Safety Education Specialist Angela Priest brought a Versant Power electric vehicle to a Milford and Bradley first responder training yesterday. Responding to a fire or other emergency involving an EV requires special training and education. "Versant Power is out to do as much public education as we can," said Priest. "We would love to be able to bring these vehicles around, along with our electrical safety training that we provide for first responders too." https://lnkd.in/eGNppr8X
