EPA Launches Prize Challenge to Showcase Electric Transportation in Action
*WASHINGTON (Oct. 27, 2023)* – Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) launched “My Electric Ride: An EV Transportation Video
Challenge,” an exciting prize competition that encourages people to share
their personal experiences with electric transportation. The challenge aims
to showcase real-world experiences of those who use electrified
transportation in everyday life and help inform the public about more
sustainable transportation. Interested participants are asked to submit a
short (1- to 2-minute) video for a chance to win up to $3,000.

Participants can submit videos in one of three categories:
• *Personal Mobility*: Electric 2- and 3-wheel personal mobility devices
such as e-bikes, e-trikes, e-scooters, or e-cargo bikes.
• *Electric Vehicles*: Electric vehicles such as cars, trucks, or SUVs.
•* Electric Buses*: Electric buses such as school buses, shuttle buses, or
transit buses.

The videos will be judged on their creativity, originality, and
effectiveness in conveying the positive aspects of electric transportation.
EPA will select up to nine winning videos, with each of the three
categories having a first, second, and third place winner. Selected videos
may be featured on EPA's website and social media channels.

Information about the video challenge and instructions on how to submit a
video can be found on the EV Transportation Video Challenge webpage

*Submissions are due by January 23, 2024.*

*Background*
The transportation sector is currently the largest contributor to
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the U.S. Electrifying transportation is
key to a more sustainable future by moving people and goods more
efficiently. With their increased energy efficiency and zero tailpipe
emissions, electric vehicles (including battery electric vehicles and
hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles) can help improve air quality in
communities and lower total GHG emissions.

transportation (i.e., decarbonize), visit:Why We Need to Decarbonize
