Legislation: Rate Payers Pay for EV Charger Installations

What is happening? Ohio is considering SB307 (2022 | OH) which establishes EV credits and among other things would allow utilities to have rate payers pay for EV charger installations.

Why is this important? Ohio had a utility pilot project on EV charger subsidies for utilities, and now that provisions that allow for rate cases for EV charger installations, opposition is solidifying around the phrase ” Voltage Valley”

How will this be important? Opponents include consumers and gas companies that want to enter into the charging market.
