An Act requiring the construction of certain parking facilities to be capable of supporting electric vehicle charging stations

This bill requires that new public parking facilities in Massachusetts include the necessary wiring to support electric vehicle charging stations. Specifically, parking lots or garages with 50 to 200 spaces must have infrastructure for at least 10% of spots, while those with over 200 spaces must accommodate at least 20%. The law applies only to state-funded construction projects and mandates that the wiring be installed in a way that allows for future charging station installation without major renovations. It does not require the immediate installation of chargers, only the preparation of the electrical capacity needed to do so.
