Key Takeaways

  • Expands the Clean Transportation Program to fund projects preventing vandalism of public EV charging stations.
  • Requires grant recipients to report operational data on charging station availability and usage quarterly.
  • Prioritizes funding for projects that advance zero-emission vehicle infrastructure and combat charging cable theft.

Summary

Assembly Member Alanis proposes expanding California's Clean Transportation Program to include funding for projects that deter and combat vandalism of public electric vehicle charging stations, including measures to prevent charging cable theft.

The Clean Transportation Program, administered by the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, currently provides competitive grants and other funding to develop innovative transportation technologies supporting California's climate goals. Under the proposed amendment, public agencies, tribes, businesses, and other eligible entities could receive funding specifically for charging station security initiatives alongside existing categories like infrastructure deployment and workforce training.

The legislation maintains the program's existing framework for project selection and oversight, requiring public approval for grants exceeding $75,000 and regular reporting on charging station operations. Grant recipients must continue providing data on metrics like station availability, energy usage, and number of vehicles served. The amendment introduces no new appropriations, instead allowing security projects to compete for current program funds alongside other eligible categories.
