- APPENDIX C: California Hydrogen Early Adopter Cluster Communities
Updates to the ZEV RegulationsIn March 2008, the ARB directed its staff to reassess the ZEV regulation, keeping in mind California’s long-term air quality and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals, and to return to them with an update and recommendation by the end of 2009. On December 11, 2009, the ARB convened to review these materials. 212 In its report to the ARB, the staff outlined a series of potential revisions to the ZEV regulation to take place after model year 2014, including the following:
APPENDIX C: California Hydrogen Early Adopter Cluster CommunitiesThe idea is to develop early “hydrogen communities” for passenger vehicles with clusters of retail hydrogen stations in four Southern California communities: Santa Monica, Irvine, Torrance and Newport Beach, with additional stations to support the next identified communities and a network of connector stations. (See map below). Placing the first wave of stations will impact the locations for the second wave. Vehicles may be more popular in one community than in another. With the help of automakers (annually surveys of information about numbers and locations of their newly deployed vehicles), it will be ensured that the next wave of stations is being constructed at the most desirable and effective locations.
