California officials are quick to praise efforts to electrify the transportation sector, but no one is sure the state can meet its goal of having 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) on the road by 2025.
“We are confident we can reach 1.5 million, but it is going to be a challenge,” said Joshua Cunningham, sustainable transportation technology chief at the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
The state now has more than 284,000 ZEVs on its roads and there are over 20 models in the marketplace. Officials point to a number of state and private programs to expand that number over the next eight years.
