Welcome to the California Electric Transportation Coalition
Making progress toward California’s clean air and climate change goals for more than 25 years by supporting electrification of all forms of transportation, while promoting equitable job creation and economic development.
Who We Are
CalETC is a non-profit association promoting economic growth, clean air, fuel diversity and energy independence, and combating climate change through the use of electric transportation. CalETC is committed to the successful introduction and large-scale deployment of all forms of electric transportation including plug-in electric vehicles, transit buses, port electrification, off-road electric vehicles and equipment, and rail.

Advocacy
CalETC has a 20-year results-driven history of serving its members and providing support to match the specific needs of each. Membership materials vary based on the type of benefits desired. CalETC advocates before government agencies and the legislature in support of plug-in electric vehicles and the interests of its members.
CalETC ALSO FACILITATES COORDINATION BETWEEN ITS MEMBERS AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS TO ACCOMPLISH GOALS INCLUDING:
Removing barriers to a successful plug-in electric vehicle market
Addressing specific regulatory and legislative mandates
Avoiding duplication of effort
Providing technical assessments as desired by its members
Facilitating dialogue between industry and other stakeholders, including California’s influential environmental organizations, to find common ground and resolve issues.
