The City of Orlando with Nissan North America will launch the Zero Emission Mobility Project, an initiative to promote the development of electric-vehicle infrastructure and adoption of electric cars. Nissan will be the first automaker to mass market all-electric vehicles, beginning with the Nissan LEAF. Orlando is one of the first markets in the world where the Nissan LEAF will be available when it goes on sale later this year.

This project is further supported by the Get Ready Central Florida initiative – a coalition comprised of the Orange County, the City of Orlando, OUC–The ReliableOne, and Progress Energy—with the goal of expediting Central Florida’s progress in preparing the infrastructure for EV transportation.
