Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), California’s largest utility serving over 16 million people, is aggressively electrifying its vehicle fleet as part of its commitment to sustainability and regulatory compliance. Currently, about 13% of PG&E’s roughly 9,700 on-road vehicles use alternative fuels, including electricity. The utility aims to have 3,800 electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030, covering 100% of light-duty, 50% of medium-duty, and 20% of heavy-duty vehicles. This transition is supported by a substantial expansion of EV charging infrastructure, with plans to increase from 821 chargers across 33 sites today to approximately 3,800 chargers across 88 sites by 2030, maintaining roughly a one-to-one vehicle-to-charger ratio. PG&E’s current electric fleet includes a variety of battery electric vehicles such as Ford Lightning and Chevrolet Silverado pickup trucks, medium-duty Freightliner vans, an all-electric bucket truck, and a Tesla Model Y
