Requires certain state owned and operated parking facilities to install and maintain charging stations for plug-in electric vehicles

Bill S 2694 requires certain state-owned and operated parking facilities in New York to install and maintain charging stations for plug-in electric vehicles. It directly affects state agencies that operate parking garages, structures, or lots with 50 or more paved spaces for public, employee, or pay-per-use parking. Facilities with 50 to 200 spaces must dedicate at least 10% of their parking spots to EV charging infrastructure. Larger facilities with over 200 spaces are required to have charging stations or equivalent infrastructure in at least 20% of their spaces. The Office of General Services (OGS) is responsible for the installation, necessary electrical upgrades (which must pay prevailing wage), and ongoing maintenance of these charging stations.
