As California moves to ban new gas-powered cars, is our state's infrastructure ready to charge all of those new electric vehicles?
California will ban the sale of new gas-powered vehicles starting in 2035 and that has created an urgency to build charging infrastructure across the state to meet that need. But is it being done safely?
"Not every building is going to catch fire but there are those that don't have the proper wiring or the proper breakers or the proper utility service and they could be in danger," says Bernie Kotlier, the national co-chair of theEVITP was launched in 2012 after a number of electric car fires. A house fire in Cerritos in 2020 occurred while an electric vehicle was plugged in and charging.
EVITP was created to establish credentialing standards for electricians and reduce the possibility of unsafe installation by electricians who might not have the expertise needed for this job. And those electricians will be asked to install over a million chargers in California by 2030. "It's not just something you just show up as an electrician and install it. You really want to do a review of what's currently there and make sure the load can handle it and make sure that this installation is going to last for a long time," says Tyler Lazarian, an EVITP electrician and COO of Electric Service
