How will nearly 500 percent more electric vehicles impact Jacksonville's power grid?

JEA needs your help if you drive an electric vehicle and it could mean earning a few extra dollars in your pocket.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — You can help ensure Jacksonville's electric grid is able to power the city into the future.

That's what JEA will study and prepare for now. "Eventually in the future, if the growth projections are right, we're going to get cluster charging," Reynolds said."We're going to get two or three homes on a single transformer with maybe multiple EVs all trying to charge at the same time. That would overload the current residential transformers and that current infrastructure."
