Survey Overview

SURVEY PURPOSE

The Energy Division of the California Public Utilities Commission seeks to maintain up-to-date, consolidated information on pilot projects related to zero-emission vehicles and vehicle-grid integration. This helps researchers, regulators, and other utility and transportation stakeholders stay informed about this quickly changing field.

Information you provide in this survey will be part of a publicly accessible dataset on the California Public Utilities Commission’s webpage about zero-emission vehicles. We appreciate your time and effort in completing the survey and hope that you will find our collection of pilot data and reports useful to your future research and decision-making.

We use the word "pilot" for a range of research activities focused on advancing battery- or hydrogen-electric vehicles, electric or hydrogen refueling infrastructure, and technologies that integrate vehicles with the electricity grid. We want to know about systems or technologies being tested, demonstrated and evaluated in California and beyond, funded publicly or privately, in progress or about to begin, and for all vehicle types from light duty to heavy duty.
