Multifamily Developer Survey of Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger Installations

Purpose of EV Charger Survey

Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey. California Air Resources Board (CARB) staff is collecting data to measure the conversion rate of electric vehicle (EV) Capable spaces to EV charging spaces in new multifamily housing in California. EV Capable spaces are parking spaces that include basic EV charging infrastructure including raceway (enclosed conduit) and panel capacity (40 amp, 208/240 volts) to accommodate future installation of a Level 2 EV charger. CARB staff are also trying to better understand any barriers encountered with the installation of Level 2 EV chargers. Results of this survey will be used to inform development of the California Green Building Standards (CALGreen) Code. The questionnaire will take about five minutes to complete. This survey is anonymous. CARB is not collecting IP addresses and no one will be able to identify you or your answers. Should the data be published, no individual information will be disclosed. Please contact Dana Papke Waters at Dana.Waters@arb.ca.gov or (916) 324-9615 for more information.
