Existing law requires the California Energy Commission (CEC), working with the State Air Resources Board (ARB) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), to prepare, and update biennially, a statewide assessment of the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure needed to support the levels of EV adoption required for the state to meet its goals of putting at least 5,000,000 zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) on California roads by 2030, and of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030.
This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact future legislation to require recipients of grants for ZEV charging stations to collect data on the status of their stations and to submit that data to a publicly accessible website.
