Existing law establishes several programs pertaining to vehicles and reducing pollution, such as the Clean Transportation Program, and various zero-emission vehicle programs administered by the State Air Resources Board, including the Medium- and Heavy-Duty Zero-Emission Vehicle Fleet Purchasing Assistance Program. With regard to zero-emission vehicles or plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, existing law requires the Department of General Services to develop prescribed criteria to evaluate bidders when awarding contracts for commercial rental car services. By January 1, 2025, this bill would require the Department of General Services to report to the Legislature on a specified study regarding the supply chain for lithium batteries in electric vehicles, and recommendations for any legislation or policy related to this supply chain to advance state environmental and economic development goals.
