| dc.description.abstract | We are a group of students who recently completed a research project regarding the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Sales Requirement and Low-Emission Vehicle (LEV) Standards adopted by the Virginia Air Pollution Control Board. The research focuses on the feasibility and equity of legislation aimed at expanding electric vehicle (EV) sales and phasing out gas-powered vehicles by 2035. Current legislation in Virginia will expand the sale of electric vehicles and prohibit new sales of gas-powered vehicles by 2035. We want to explore whether or not this legislation is feasible and equitable for all within the Commonwealth as well as explore the sustainability challenges surrounding EVs. Our project goal was to determine the feasibility of this legislation in Virginia considering different relevant criteria. Below is a summary of our findings. Based on our research, we have determined that the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Sales Requirement and Low-Emission Vehicle (LEV) Standards adopted by the Virginia Air Pollution Control Board are not currently feasible. | en |
