Portland, Oregon is bringing together citizens, government officials, big automakers, and more to get ready at the Regional Innovation Forum in March
Early plug-in leaders are critical to drive the momentum for early EV launches, but share lessons with cities who are following closely behind. Thanks to plug-in pioneers like Project Get Ready partner cities, the roadmap to EV readiness has become much clearer for the rest of the country. In a recent report by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and RMI’s Project Get Ready, America’s fifty largest metro areas are evaluated on factors like regulatory requirements, incentives, public charging, permitting and planning and power reliability.
Project Get Ready is a non-profit initiative led by Rocky Mountain Institute, in conjunction with a wide array of partners and technical advisers. Project Get Ready will:
* Create a dynamic “menu” of strategic plug-in readiness actions including the “business case” for each action.
* Provide a web database of American and international plug-in readiness activities.
* Convene at least 20 cities as well as technical players regularly to discuss their lessons learned and best practices, and report these conversations on our website and materials.
* Much more!

* Top 15 actions that a city must take to be ready, organized by primary actor
* 10 second-tier actions that a city could take to be ready
* Financial assessment of each action where possible
