We’re excited to announce SPURR’s Fall 2025 Webinar Series, designed to help California public agencies simplify and accelerate their journey toward vehicle electrification. Through three free, information-packed sessions, SPURR’s Procurement Assistance for Vehicle Electrification (PAVE) Program will share practical insights, resources, and success stories to make electrification planning easier and more cost-effective.
Electrification can be complex—new regulations, funding challenges, and infrastructure requirements can feel overwhelming. That’s where SPURR PAVE comes in. Our webinars will help answer key questions such as:
- What are the current regulations, and how are they changing?
- How can agencies fund large capital projects in a shifting grant landscape?
- What resources are available to help with electrification planning?
Each session includes a live Q&A and will be recorded for later viewing.
