Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger Location Assessment

The State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission (Commission), in partnership with the California Air Resources Board (CARB), must assess whether EV chargers in California are located disproportionately by population density, geographical area, or population income level. If the Commission and CARB determine that EV chargers have been disproportionately installed, the Commission must use funding from the California Energy Commission’s Clean Transportation Program, as well as other funding sources, to proportionately install new EV chargers, unless it is determined that the current locations of EV chargers are reasonable and further California’s energy or environmental policy goals.
