Utility-driven Programs Expanding EV Access for Low and Medium-Income Households

As the shift to electric vehicles (EVs) continues its momentum, it is critical that this transition is accessible and affordable for all communities. This webinar will spotlight how utilities are key in bridging the equity gap in transportation electrification by implementing targeted programs for underserved populations.

Utility-led programs have the potential to play a transformative role in making EVs accessible to low and medium-income families through incentives, rebates, and infrastructure support. However, significant barriers remain, including the high upfront cost of EVs, lack of charging infrastructure in low-income neighborhoods, and limited awareness of available educational resources. By prioritizing equity, utilities can ensure that the transition to electric mobility benefits all customers, regardless of income level.

Join us to explore how utility-driven initiatives are addressing these challenges and barriers. Topics will include,

• Utility incentives and rebates for EV purchases and home charging infrastructure

• Discounted electricity rates for EV charging, and building public charging stations in underserved areas. 

• Outreach and education to raise awareness about such programs

This webinar is presented by Forth and the Association of Energy Services Professionals (AESP) and will feature actionable insights, real-world examples, and proven strategies that utility programs are using to create a more inclusive transition to electric mobility.
