Green CarShare Program for Orcas Residents
Orcas Island residents are encouraged to use our Green CarShare program. The program provides access to electric vehicles and encourages residents to reduce carbon emissions while also lowering transportation costs. The CarShare program has been made possible through a grant from the Washington Department of Transportation Zero-Emissions Access Program (ZAP).
Two cars are available – a Chevy Bolt EV and a Chevy Bolt EUV. The Bolt EV is a hatchback, while the Bolt EUV is a crossover SUV. The cars are currently stationed at April’s Grove and OPAL headquarters where there are dedicated carshare EV chargers.
Who is eligible to join the program?
- Valid WA state driver’s license
- 21 years of age or older
- Personal car insurance with a minimum of $100,000 liability per occurrence
- Clean driving record within three years of application to join car-share. Obtain your Full Washington State driving record here.
If you meet the eligibility requirements and want to schedule a test drive, contact us at greencarshare-support@islandrides.org or call/text us at 360-468-5260.
How does it work?
The Chevy Bolt EVs are shared across users who reserve times to use the cars.
