Innovation in Transportation Electrification
To meet California’s goal of carbon neutrality by 2045, the state will have to significantly increase the electrification of cars, buses, medium- and heavy-duty trucks and industrial vehicles and equipment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution.
Southern California Edison’s Countdown to 2045 highlights that 90% of light- and medium-duty and 50% of heavy-duty vehicles on California’s roads and in its freight yards should be electric powered by 2045.
SCE is accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles through multiple efforts, including its Charge Ready programs.

Cleaning Transportation
Electrifying cars, trucks and freight equipment will improve air quality and address climate change.
In California, the transportation sector accounts for 41% of the greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate change and more than 80% of its air pollution.
In Los Angeles County, medium-duty, heavy-duty and non-road vehicles, such as cranes and tractors, contribute substantially to these emissions.
