"This finalist nod is a testament to the power of community and creativity in driving change," said Denzien. "Through ZEM and our events, we're not just talking about EVs; we're showing how they lead to energy-resilient communities, cost savings, and a healthier planet."
"Some advocacy is very easy. As a host I was able to get Airbnb to add EV charge stations as a guest amenity to their app. A small thing but now hosts everywhere worldwide can offer this amenity to all guests and that is a big thing."
The Drive Electric Awards, presented by Plug In America, honor leaders in EV education, outreach, and innovation. Finalists are chosen by a committee of experts, with winners to be announced on Thursday, October 28, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. EST via Instagram Live. https://pluginamerica.org/about/drive-electric-awards/2025-drive-electric-awards Denzien's work exemplifies the awards' spirit, having organized dozens of events that educate on EV benefits like lower maintenance costs, instant torque, and zero tailpipe emissions, while fostering transitions to solar-powered homes and businesses.
