NFPA, Chevrolet and OnStar have launched the first virtual electric vehicle safety training for first responders. The online training, hosted on NFPA’s Electric Vehicles Safety Training website, features an inside look at the technology and safety systems for the all-new 2011 Chevrolet Volt, an electric vehicle with extended-range capabilities that hit the roads last fall.
The collaboration with Chevrolet and OnStar stems from NFPA’s electric vehicle safety training initiative, a result of a $4.4 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, that supports the growing number of electric vehicles in the United States.
This is an NFPA sponsored training opportunity which may be reached HERE.
