This report, led by Daniel Davids and during the Plug In America initiative, explores consumer demand and experience with electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. Funded by Washington State HB1481, the project team conducted extensive research, including agency interviews and surveys of experienced EV drivers. Key findings inform the development of model ordinances, guidelines, and recommendations to improve EV charging accessibility and efficiency. By addressing codes, regulations, and best practices, this initiative aims to enhance infrastructure and support EV adoption.
