The United States' transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to bring customer choice, energy independence, healthier communities, critical emission reductions, and new, accessible jobs. Done right, it can also increase grid reliability and reduce electricity costs for all. Electric utilities play a pivotal role in unlocking these benefits. Around the country, states are compelling their utilities to streamline interconnection processes and plan ahead to help ensure EV uptake benefits all Americans. Some utilities are also leading the way.
This series of short fact sheets helps to inform those efforts by describing state-led utility policy options, and providing examples of where they have already been implemented across the United States.
Fact sheets include:
- Integrating Electric Vehicles on the Grid
- Planning the Grid for EV Growth
- Utility Investments to Power Up EV Charging
- (Coming Soon) Developing Comprehensive Transportation Electrification Plans
- (Coming Soon) Accelerating EV Charger Energization
