Renewable Revolution

California will work to put five million zero-emission cars on its roads by 2030, Governor Jerry Brown announced last week. An executive order signed by Brown on Friday outlines a $2.5 billion electric vehicle initiative for the next eight years, including directives to build an additional 250,000 charging stations and increased rebates to encourage consumers to buy electric cars.

California currently has around 350,000 electric vehicles on its roads, and Governor Brown's previous target was to see 1.5 million vehicles by 2025.
