Event Details

People are deeply concerned about the climate crisis. LOSN offers effective and practical ways for home-owners and renters to move away from fossil fuels that are causing global warming. Our electricity, by law, is becoming clean and renewable from solar, wind, and hydropower.

As your appliances and vehicles are replaced, we encourage you to move away from gasoline and natural gas and begin your electrification journey—electric vehicles and high-efficiency home appliances such as heat pumps for heating and cooling your home, heat pumps for heating water, and induction cooking for your stove. Become more resilient with solar energy and battery storage. These changes will also lower your energy bills and make your home safer, healthier and more comfortable.

Our Lake Oswego Electric Home and Vehicle Fair gets to the ”how” of electrifying.

  • Meet contractors and representatives of organizations who can help you plan your electrification journey and take advantage of a variety of financial incentives. Many contractors will be offering incentives available to fair attendees. Visit our event page for a full list of exhibitors.
  • New this year, every ride in a dealer-owned EV enters you to win one of fifty $25 gift certificates to a Lake Oswego restaurant. You can also talk with dozens of local electric vehicle owners about their EVs.
  • Discover the advantages of electric yard equipment and ditch the gas.
  • Listen to a speaker every half hour starting at 10:30 am on important electrification topics, including financial incentives, how to join a community solar power project, and more. Visit our event page for the schedule of speakers and topics.
  • Keep your energy up with Arrow Coffee and Desserts and pancake and cider samples cooked on induction hot plates by Electrify PDX

Test Drive an EV at the Fair and Enter to Win One of 50 Gift Cards Worth $25

You can also visit with many of the EV owners who have brought their EV to display and discuss at the Fair. Find out what their experience has been.

The number of available EVs is going up while the cost of owning one is going down. Financial incentives on a new EV can run from $10,000 to  $15,000 depending on your income level. Financial incentives for used EVs can be as high as $9000. The operating and maintenance costs typically are 70% less  than a gas car. You will find that owning an EV is financially very attractive.
