SUMMARY

On February 9, 2015, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) submitted an application to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for approval of its proposed Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure and Education Program. PG&E estimates the proposal’s total cost will be $654 million. At the request of the CPUC, on October 15, 2015, PG&E filed two proposals for a gradual implementation of the program. The first proposal is for 24-months, at a cost of $87 million. The alternate proposal is for 36-months at a cost of $222 million. Both proposals are currently under CPUC consideration. Under both proposals, PG&E would deploy EV charging infrastructure at sites to help achieve California’s greenhouse gas reduction goals by expanding the use of electricity as a cleaner transportation fuel.

BACKGROUND

PG&E’s proposal will provide customers with convenient access to electric vehicle charging stations. PG&E proposes to install, maintain and manage the operation of electric vehicle charging stations and related electric infrastructure at sites throughout PG&E’s service territory. The sites will be located at workplaces, multi-unit dwellings and public spaces. If the application is approved, PG&E also will develop materials to promote hosting of charging stations and to raise awareness of the benefits of clean electric transportation. The program aims to help improve transportation options for electric vehicle owners and accelerate adoption of electric vehicles.

EVIDENTIARY HEARINGS

At the evidentiary hearings noted above, PG&E and other formal parties to the proceeding will present their evidence through testimony and will be subject to cross-examination before a judge. The hearings are open to the public, but only those who are formal parties are permitted to present evidence and/or cross-examine witnesses. After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the formal process, the judge will issue a proposed decision which may accept PG&E’s proposal, modify it or deny it. The Commissioners may also issue alternate decisions based on the record. The proposed decision and any alternates will be acted upon at a CPUC Voting Meeting where the Commissioners will decide whether to adopt the proposed or an alternate decision.
