2017-S3745 (ACTIVE) - Sponsor Memo

                                 BILL NUMBER:  S3745

 TITLE OF BILL :  An act to amend the public service law, in relation
to establishing the electric vehicle charging tariff

 PURPOSE :

To provide greater incentives for the ownership of electric vehicles
and encourage grid-responsible charging times.

 SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :

Would define "eligible vehicle to mean" a vehicle with (I) four
wheels; (ii) was manufactured for use primarily on public streets,
roads and highways; (iii) the powertrain of which has not been
modified from the original manufacturer's specifications; (iv) is
rated at nor more than eight thousand five hundred pounds gross
vehicle weight; (v) has a maximum speed capability of at least
fifty-five miles per hour and; (vi) is propelled at least in part by
an electric motor and associated power electronics which provide
acceleration torque to the drive wheels sometime during normal vehicle
operation, and that draws electricity from a hydrogen fuel cell or
batter that: (a) has a capacity of not less than four kilowatt hours;
and (b) is capable of being recharged from an external source of
electricity.

Would direct combination electric and gas corporations, to file with
the Public Service Commission (PSC) a tariff allowing residential
customers to purchase for the sole purpose of eligible vehicles.
Would require reporting on the amount of participation and electricity
delivered.

Additionally, the legislation would require the tariff to include
clear billing statements as well as reporting to the PSC.

 JUSTIFICATION :

New York State has set an ambitious, but much needed target to reduce
greenhouse gases in the coming decade through a drastic increase in
the amount of renewable energy purchased by utilities. While this
fifty percent renewables by 2030 goal is crucial, it is important to
ensure that it is complementary towards the nascent electric vehicle
industry. This bill is intended to encourage grid-responsible charging
of electric cars by allowing New York's combination electric and gas
corporations to develop pricing structures that would incentivize
charging during periods when a significant portion of renewable energy
is dispatched into the grid. By aligning renewable production with
charging, we can ensure that electric vehicle usage will grow in a
manner consistent with New York's environmental and energy goals.

 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :

2016 - S. 7455a - Rules Committee/A. 9574a - Passed Assembly.

 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :

Likely costs to Department of Public Service.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
Immediate.
