In February 2009, American Public University System (APUS) purchased two electric vehicles (EVs) for transporting people, equipment, mail, and supplies across the university’s Charles Town, West Virginia campus. Using EVs at APUS will aid in fulfilling the school’s commitment to the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) by providing fuel efficient transportation around campus and reducing CO2 and other harmful emissions created when using traditional vehicles. Prior to purchasing the EVs, employees used their personal vehicles to move goods and mail around the organization.
