 The Road to Electrification: Progress and Challenges

LADWP is moving towards clean electricity generation, but will customers keep up by electrifying their homes, businesses and vehicles? To fully electrify, gas stoves, ovens, water heaters, washing machines, dryers and more will need to be replaced. New purchases of electric cars and light trucks have been steadily increasing but cost and access to charging remain obstacles. This presentation will look at programs that encourage electrification as well as challenges along the way. Forecasts and goals for electrification will also be addressed.         

Bagels & coffee will be provided.
