Disadvantaged communities received just 7% of California’s EV incentives between 2010 and 2021, and saw substantially smaller reductions in particulate emissions.
A new study finds that California’s electric vehicle rebate program is resulting in cleaner air, but wealthier communities so far are reaping most of the benefits.
Residents in better-off areas are also breathing easier: PM2.5 emissions fell a median of nearly 0.7 kilograms per year in those census tracts, four times the median reduction in disadvantaged communities. Researchers found that PM2.5 pollution actually rose in 17% of disadvantaged areas, which are home to 39% of California’s fossil fuel power plants.
A University of Southern California study released in February also found a correlation between the growing numbers of electric vehicles on the road in California and healthier air. An analysis of 1,238 zip codes showed that 20 EVs per 1,000 residents was associated with a 3% decline in asthma-related visits to emergency rooms.
