New Jersey joins other states in adopting California's 2035 target for the phase out of sales of gas cars and light trucks, but there are a few hurdles.
New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy kicked off the effort with the signing of three executive orders this week aimed at advancing clean energy programs, which also included plans for the state's natural gas utilities and electrification of the building sector.
"These bold targets and carefully crafted initiatives signal our unequivocal commitment to swift and concrete climate action today," the governor said."We've turned our vision for a greener tomorrow into a responsible and actionable roadmap to guide us, and it's through that pragmatic, evidence-based approach that we will ultimately arrive at our destination."
As these actions were taken through an executive order rather than legislation, implementation of ACC II will be done through a state agency rulemaking process. This means the appropriate state agencies will have to adopt administrative rules to bring about the planned phase-out. New Jersey has some advantages compared to a number of other East Coast states in increasing the size of its EV network, since so much of the state is urban or suburban. The state may have an easier time filling gaps in geographic EV station coverage, when it comes to miles one needs to travel to the nearest charger, even though much work remains to be done to permit even 50% of cars sold in the state to be electric.
