Bill > H3204

This bill establishes off-peak electric vehicle (EV) charging rebates. It directs the Department of Public Utilities to open a proceeding within three months of the bill's effective date, where distribution companies will propose rate rebates for off-peak EV charging compared to on-peak charging. These rebates will incorporate values for avoided energy and capacity costs, transmission and distribution costs, improved grid reliability, capacity benefits, avoided greenhouse gas emissions, and public health benefits. The Department of Public Utilities will then direct the distribution companies to implement these rebates within six months of the proceeding's opening, with the goal of coordinating the rebates to minimize unnecessary differences between distribution companies.
