The Assembly Bill (AB) 2127 Second Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Assessment examines charging needs to support California’s zero-emission vehicles in 2030 and 2035. Pursuant to AB 2127, the California Energy Commission is required to publish a biennial report on the charging infrastructure needed for California to meet its zero-emission vehicle targets by 2030.| California Energy Commission
The Load Management Standards encourage shifting electricity use from times of day when it is expensive and polluting to times when it is cheaper and cleaner. Load management, or demand flexibility, can save building owners money on their energy bills, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and help strengthen the resiliency of the electricity grid.| California Energy Commission
