Who We Are
The North Bay Electric Auto Association (NBEAA) is a chapter of the Electric Vehicle Association covering the North San Francisco Bay Area of California, focused on the counties of Lake, Marin, Mendocino, Napa, Solano, and Sonoma. Our hybrid meetings include members from outside the area.
We follow EV trends locally and well beyond. For more information, feel free to contact us.
Next Meeting
The NBEAA meets every second Saturday of the month. Our next meeting will be on February 14th at 10am. We will meet in person at ThunderStruck Motors, and online via Zoom.
Our speaker this month is Davone McCord, founder of Chargelane, who will join us virtually. Chargelane is an early-stage startup exploring new ways to make EV charging more accessible by integrating charging directly into parking areas and road-adjacent spaces. Their focus is on inductive charging and self-charging spots and roads.
We’ll also catch up with recent news and trends and discuss topics brought up by attendees.
Join us to meet other EV owners and learn about what’s happening in the world of EVs.
Meetings occur on the 2nd Saturday of the month from 10am to 12pm PT.
