Nominees were selected after a ‘large-scale survey’ of the Fully Charged SHOW audience, then initial candidates were curated by the team itself, plus a panel of 15 energy and transportation experts, before arriving at the finalists in each category.
Voting opened online on 9th November and closed on 16th November and attracted several thousand Electric Vehicle drivers who voted for their winners in the 15 categories of the first ‘consumer choice’ awards for clean energy and electric vehicles. Zij brachten hun stem uit op de finalisten in de 15 categorieën van de eerste consumentenkeuze awards voor schone energie en elektrische voertuigen.
Carver’s General Manager, Giel Franken says, “This is validation that not only we think that it’s time get out of our SUV’s and into the right-sized vehicles to support the energy transition.
