Via PV Mag: " California hits new milestone with EV chargers: California installed 24,202 chargers in the first half of 2024, bringing the total to over 150,000. California has surpassed 150,000 public and shared private chargers installed statewide, including 137,648 Level 2 chargers and 14,708 fast chargers. In addition to the public network, the state estimates that more than 500,000 private home chargers are installed statewide. Of the 48,000 chargers added to the data set since the end of last year, 24,202 new chargers were installed in the first half of 2024. The remaining 23,142 chargers were installed before 2024 and identified through new data sources, according to the California Energy Commission (CEC). This announcement made by Governor Gavin Newsom comes weeks after California posted its second highest ever market share in zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) sales. “When it comes to zero-emission vehicle infrastructure, California has no peers,” said Governor Newsom. “The state is all-in on clean transportation, dedicating unprecedented investments to supercharge our transition. We’re building a bigger, better charging network – faster.” The CEC approved more than $1 billion in funding this year for EV charging and hydrogen refueling projects for cars, trucks, and buses, including $390 million for electric school bus charging. The state is also expected to receive more than $380 million from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act for building out chargers. As EV drivers are aware, reliability and uptime of chargers is extremely important, and the CEC reports that it will soon have state EV charging reliability regulations that will track the publicly funded chargers. It is also collaborating with the University of California, Davis, on a field testing program that will catalog the reliability of chargers. California has a rule, set by Governor Newsom in 2020, requiring all new car sales to be zero-emission by 2035. As a result, more than one-quarter of all new cars sold in Q2 2024 are zero-emission vehicles (ZEV), with an average of 1,300 selling daily. CEC reports that 1,996,931 total ZEVs have been sold to date and the state now boasts that over one-third of all ZEVs sold in the U.S. are sold in California.

🚗🔋 New Study Highlights Benefits of Efficient Electric Vehicles A recent report by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) reveals that more efficient electric vehicles (EVs) could significantly reduce grid stress and lower charging costs. The study suggests that advancements in EV efficiency not only help in reducing overall energy consumption but also ease the burden on the electric grid during peak times. This efficiency translates to potential savings for both consumers and utilities, making a strong case for investing in cutting-edge EV technology. As we continue to push for a more sustainable future, improving EV efficiency emerges as a key strategy for balancing energy demands and enhancing the economic viability of electric transportation. 🔗 Read the full article #ElectricVehicles #EnergyEfficiency #Sustainability #GridManagement #Innovation
