    Transportation Electrification

VCREA, funded by the EV Ready Communities Challenge Grant, administers the implementation of the EV Blueprint with the help of Community Environmental Council, Ventura County Air Pollution Control District, EV Alliance, and Ventura County Regional Energy Alliance.

The Ventura County EV Ready Blueprint is intended to accelerate and support electric vehicle and charging infrastructure deployment throughout Ventura County. Adoption of Electric Vehicles will benefit Ventura County residents in many ways, including: lowering fueling costs for drivers (charging at home overnight is like paying $1.50/gallon!), lowering vehicle maintenance costs (no more oil changes!), reducing pollution and cleaning air (no tailpipe emissions!), and facilitating a smooth transition from fossil fuels to clean transportation.
