Virginia Get Ready Mission Statement
Establish Virginia as a leader in the adoption of the electric vehicles in order
to reduce vehicle emissions, increase energy independence, and generate
positive economic development for the Commonwealth. By October 2010,
present a Virginia “electrification plan” detailing:
· How to overcome potential barriers associated with the adoption of plugin vehicles and charging infrastructure specifically related to codes,
standards and processes;
· A communication strategy to educate appropriate partners, stakeholders
and the general public;
· The potential incentives (monetary, nonmonetary, upfront and long-term)
to encourage businesses and individuals to purchase plug-in vehicles;
· The issues and tasks necessary to the installation of a charging
infrastructure, from the technical to the managerial.
