All funded chargers must be installed by a team with at least one licensed Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program (EVITP)-certified electrical contractor in accordance with state and local building codes and relevant safety standards and comply with California prevailing wages. Installations must include appropriate lighting, signage, and security measures to ensure chargers are safe and easily identifiable for public users.
Applicants must commit to maintaining and operating all chargers for at least six (6) years after installation.

Applicants must maintain a 97% uptime (ability to charge) during the six (6) year period as defined in the EVCP Terms and Conditions available on the Program website.
Chargers must be registered in a public EV charger database, such as the Alternative Fuels Data Center, to ensure location visibility and accessibility for users. The County will also maintain a geodatabase of all chargers installed via the program.
