DESCRIPTION:The Vermont transportation sector has been identified as one of
  the prime targets for electrification in the next decade to meet statewid
 e carbon reduction goals. The integration of electric vehicles poses a num
 ber of challenges\, however\, including the logistics of deploying chargin
 g infrastructure and emerging electric power grid constraints.\n\nJointly 
 hosted by UVM&#39;s center on energy and autonomy\, [CREATE](https://www.uvm.e
 du/cems/create)\, and the local [IEEE PES Green Mountain Section](https://
 site.ieee.org/gms-pes/)\, this event will feature short talks about these 
 issues from utility representatives\, researchers\, and transportation exp
