Bill Summary
AN ACT in relation to requiring the New York State Thruway Authority to provide at least twelve charging stations at each rest area and gas station complex owned, leased or operated by the Thruway Authority
AI Summary
This bill requires the New York State Thruway Authority to install at least twelve electric vehicle charging stations at each rest area and gas station complex that it owns, leases, or operates. The bill provides detailed definitions for key terms such as "electric vehicle" (a motor vehicle powered by an electric motor and rechargeable from an external electricity source), "plug-in hybrid electric vehicle" (an electric vehicle with an internal combustion engine), and "Level 3 electric vehicle charger" (a fast charger that delivers electricity through DC current). The purpose of the legislation is to expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure along the New York State Thruway, making it more convenient for electric vehicle owners to travel long distances by ensuring access to fast charging stations at multiple locations. The charging stations must support the two most commonly used Level 3 fast charger technologies, and the requirement will apply to all rest areas and gas station complexes under the Thruway Authority's control. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
