Highlights
- Southern California Edison’s (SCE) Charge Ready 2 program was approved by the California Public Utilities Commission which will result in the addition of 38,000 new charging stations across Southern California over the next four years
- The program aims to increase clean transportation options particularly in underserved communities by using some of the $437 million allocated to the program to implement electric vehicle infrastructure in workplaces and multi-unit dwellings
- Nearly $15 million will be used on education and outreach
- The Charge Ready 2 program is the largest single program for any utility in the country and builds off of the Charge Ready program that SCE initiated in 2014
Increased air pollution from fossil fuel emissions– including tailpipes– makes all of us more vulnerable to the current COVID-19 pandemic. The Climate Center’s Climate-Safe California Platform includes solutions for clean mobility to cut greenhouse gas emissions from transportation.
