The recent rollbacks of vehicle emissions standards demonstrate that reducing transportation emissions is not an administrative priority. During the last year, the Trump administration has unlawfully frozen, and in some instances Congress has eliminated, federal clean transportation investments meant to spur electric vehicle (EV) domestic manufacturing and accelerate EV adoption.
With EV adoption on the rise, the growing EV market offers utilities an opportunity to take a leadership role. This guide builds on the AchiEVe Policy Toolkit to provide a focused update on utilities’ opportunities to drive EV adoption.
This is a policy guide on expanding access to EVs and other kinds of e-mobility. It provides model policies for utilities, localities, and states to encourage EV adoption within their communities and ensure that their transition to an electric transportation system is effective and equitable.
This toolkit is designed to provide public officials and advocates with model EV policies that accelerate the switch to clean vehicles in an effective, sustainable, and equitable way.
In order to combat our climate crisis, improve air quality and public health, and improve our energy security, we must move transportation away from oil and toward an electric future.
This report presents the findings of the Sierra Club's recent nationwide investigation into the shopping experience for consumer EVs. The report results show that 74 percent of auto dealerships surveyed do not have a single EV on their lot for sale and that consumers were still not being given important information about charging, battery range, and financial incentives.
This report shows that by adopting a goal of reducing motor vehicle emissions 55% by 2035 from 1990 levels and implementing a suite of familiar and achievable policies, New York can ensure the transportation sector is on track to meet economy-wide goals, improve public health and the environment, retain billions of dollars in the state’s economy, and promote an equitable transportation sector transformation.
