Leading the Charge: A Case Study to Unlock Rapid EV Growth Using Data
Wednesday, October 30 | 1:00 p.m. ET/3:00 p.m. MT
RMI partnered with policymakers in Washington State, a leader in climate policy, to prepare their grid for electric vehicles (EVs) in a first-of-its-kind collaboration. Through data analysis, community engagement, and inclusive policymaking, our work is helping ensure that the benefits of electrifying Washington’s transportation system are not only realized but shared equitably. Join RMI’s experts to hear the details of this work and how it can scale nationwide.
