This Localized Health Impacts Report describes the potential health impacts to communities from projects seeking California Energy Commission (CEC) funding under Grant Solicitation GFO-22-614. This grant initiative seeks to demonstrate replicable and scalable business and technology models for large-scale deployment of electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure capable of maximizing access and EV travel for multi-family housing residents. Under California Code of Regulations Title 13, Section 2343, this report is available for public comment for 30 days before projects can be approved at a publicly noticed business meeting.
CEC staff has proposed 11 projects for Clean Transportation Program or similar grant funding awards under Solicitation GFO-22-614. Each of these projects has multiple locations. Based on project site information provided by the awardees, 52 of the 105 communities where these projects are located are considered high-risk communities. Staff does not anticipate a net increase in the pollution burden for the communities where these projects are located.
