Opinion Dynamics is pleased to announce we have contracted with Southern California Edison (SCE) to evaluate its Charge Ready EV charging program for light-duty vehicles. The largest single-utility electric vehicle charging program in the nation, this groundbreaking program is designed to address one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the state of California.
Charge Ready is vital to combating climate change. The stakes for developing appropriate and viable programs to further transform the light-duty vehicle market to EVs have never been higher. Opinion Dynamics is excited to work with SCE throughout the four-year evaluation to provide insights around customer, grid, equity, and climate impacts and further the adoption of EVs in SCE’s service area, which is within Central, Coastal, and Southern California.
“SCE is leading with way with Charge Ready by deploying EV charging infrastructure at an unprecedented scale for a single utility,” said Olivia Patterson, Senior Vice President at Opinion Dynamics. “We look forward to providing SCE with analytics and gathering lessons learned that will inform the strategic direction of EV charging deployments in Southern California and beyond.”
