Existing law requires the Transportation Agency to prepare a state freight plan every 5 years to govern the immediate and long-range planning activities and capital investments of the state with respect to the movement of freight. Existing law requires the state freight plan to include, among other things, a description of needed infrastructure, projects, and operations for the deployment of zero-emission medium- and heavy-duty vehicles and the development of freight corridors identified in a specified assessment.
Existing law requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission (Energy Commission) , working with specified state agencies, to prepare a statewide assessment of the electric vehicle charging infrastructure needed to support the levels of electric vehicle adoption required for the state to meet its goals of putting at least 5,000,000 zero-emission vehicles on California roads by 2030, and of reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases to 40% below 1990 levels by 2030.
This bill would require the Transportation Agency and the Energy Commission to jointly convene the Zero-Emission Freight Central Delivery Team, composed of representatives from various state agencies, to lead the statewide coordination of zero-emission freight infrastructure planning and implementation, including carrying out specified actions.
