A Capitol Hill Briefing on Electric Vehicle Policies, Monday, September 10th (Webcast Available)

Legal Planeteers in the Washington DC area are invited to join the environmental law centers at Berkeley and UCLA Schools of Law as we present a lunchtime, Capitol Hill discussion on policies necessary for long-term, mass adoption of electric vehicle technologies. This free event is sponsored by Congressman Henry Waxman’s office and will also be available by webcast.

The briefing will include a panel discussion with electric vehicle experts and industry representatives on the critical policy options for boosting electric vehicle deployment. The event will coincide with the release of a forthcoming policy report “Electric Drive by ’25” from Berkeley and UCLA Law as part of the Climate Change and Business Research Initiative. The report will offer suggestions for industry and for federal, state, and local governments to increase electric vehicle deployment in California and nationwide. Complimentary lunch will be served.
