The December 8 Drive Forward Truck Forum meeting on ZEV infrastructure will focus on proactive grid upgrades to support future charging infrastructure for fleets. Electrical utilities Pacific Gas & Electric, Southern California Edison and San Diego Gas & Electric will share how they evaluate pending electrical loads to identify where grid upgrades are needed before service requests are filed, the information they need to support funding for proactive grid upgrades, and how state and local government fleets can help inform these decisions. The purpose of this discussion is to support state and local government fleet compliance with the Advanced Clean Fleets regulation and will have no effect on existing or pending regulations.
This meeting is scheduled for Monday, December 8, 2025, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Drive Forward Truck Forum meetings include existing panel members and invited guests who participate in the moderated discussion.
