Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly changing Colorado’s transportation landscape, and the Town of Crested Butte is planning ahead to adapt in a way that aligns with its mobility goals. In 2024, Crested Butte and Mt. Crested Butte began developing a joint Readiness for Electric Vehicles (REV) Plan to understand how the growing EV market will impact the northern Gunnison Valley and to outline charging strategies that support both towns’ vision for EV adoption.
Funding for the REV Plan was secured through a joint application to the Colorado Energy Office’s Local Government EV Readiness Planning Grant. The plan promotes a unified, regional approach to EV readiness, ensuring both towns adapt together rather than separately.
Both Town Councils officially adopted the plan on April 7, 2025.
