Hawaii SB2435 aims to expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure in state facilities.

Hawaii SB2435 establishes a goal for the state to retrofit state facilities to be electric vehicle charger-ready.

Beginning July 1, 2027, at least 25% of parking stalls in new state building construction must be electric vehicle charger-ready. The bill also appropriates funds for cost assessments and installations of charging systems at high-priority state facilities. The act takes effect on July 1, 2026.
