As part of National Drive Electric Week, Knoxville Utilities Board (KUB) and its partners will celebrate the opening of two new electric vehicle (EV) fast charging stations in KUB’s service area – one in Downtown Knoxville and one at the Food City in Seymour.
These stations are part of the Fast Charge Tennessee Network, a partnership between the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), and Seven States Power Corporation. The initiative aims to make driving EVs more convenient by installing charging stations every 50 miles along Tennessee’s interstates and major highways.
