The Resource Network is part of NECA’s commitment to connecting skilled electrical professionals with the demands of the EV charging industry. As EV adoption accelerates, the infrastructure must keep pace, and NECA aims to provide a valuable tool for contractors to connect with peers, share knowledge, and capitalize on industry growth. The platform is expected to play a crucial role in unifying the professional community around EVSE and helping members navigate the evolving landscape of electric vehicle charging technologies.
