Existing law provides for various state programs and services for the purpose of attracting and retaining businesses in the state. Existing law creates the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development and requires the office to serve the Governor as the lead entity for economic strategy and the marketing of California on issues relating to business development, private sector investment, and economic growth. This bill would establish the California Zero-Emission Vehicle Authority within the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development. The bill would require the authority to coordinate activities among state agencies to advance zero-emission vehicle infrastructure deployment, including charging stations and hydrogen refueling stations, as well as ensure related equity, workforce development, economic development, and other needs are addressed, as specified. The bill would require the authority to publish on its internet website and report to the relevant policy committees of the Legislature an update on its progress in prescribed activities, including metrics in specified areas, including vehicle sales and job training. The bill would repeal these provisions on January 1, 2029.
