CALSTART’s EV Employer Initiative • How to join and why • 4 pro-EV principles
CALSTART’s History of EV Experience
In the 1990’s, CALSTART led a multi-party effort to build 500+ EV charging stations in CA
• Today, CALSTART’s new parking lot canopy and rooftop solar panels provide clean, renewable energy to the Pasadena headquarters building, and allow our growing fleet of EV’s to charge with near zero emission electricity.
• California public funding is scheduled to decline
• CALSTART is working on a separate initiative to sustain the funding state incentives for EV’s and infrastructure.
Project Background
Why Workplace Charging? Fills a critical gap in PEV
Infrastructure needs
Extends the range of PEVs and builds the market

EV’s can act as ‘employee pool cars’ for day trips
