This dataset provides a comprehensive, state-level view of the key factors influencing electric vehicle (EV) adoption across the United States. Compiled from authoritative sources such as the US Census Bureau, Department of Energy, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), and others, it includes annual data on EV registrations, socioeconomic indicators, infrastructure availability, policy incentives, and energy prices from multiple years.

The dataset is designed to support research and analysis on the drivers of EV adoption, enabling users to explore questions around policy effectiveness, infrastructure planning, and market dynamics.

Context & Motivation The transition to electric vehicles is a cornerstone of US climate and energy policy, yet EV adoption rates remain highly uneven across states. While states like California lead with robust infrastructure and incentives, other regions-particularly in the Midwest and South-lag behind. Understanding what drives these differences is crucial for policymakers, automakers, and energy providers.

This dataset was created as part of a research project investigating the determinants of EV adoption. By making this data publicly available, I hope to empower further research, foster data-driven policy decisions, and encourage innovation in sustainable transportation.

This project, The Santa Cruz Research Partnership, was developed to document how one central coast California county probation department adopted evidence based practices (EBP) and whether the adoption of these practices reduced gender and racial/ethnic disparities. To examine how these EBP related changes have affected their department, the National Council on Crime and Delinquency (NCCD) completed three studies for this National Institute of Justice (NIJ) grant. Specifically, NCCD: 1) completed interviews with the entire probation department staff to examine how the adoption of EBP affects the daily practices of the probation department, 2) analyzed case management system data to understand how the adoption of a probation violation graduated response grid affected outcomes for probationers, and 3) analyzed case management system data to examine why Latino probationers are more likely to have bench warrants issued against them even though they have statistically significantly lower risk levels.

This research tests an implicit assumption on investment in plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) charging infrastructure: people who are not already interested in PEVs will see public PEV charging and become interested in PEVs. Data from a survey of car-owning households in California are combined with data on public PEV charging and PEV registrations to estimate a structural equation model of the extent to which participants have considered acquiring a battery electric vehicle (BEV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), and whether participants report seeing PEV charging. The model controls for socio-economic and demographic measures and participants’ awareness, knowledge, and assessments of PEVs, and the known correlation between PEV registrations and public charging locations. Using logistic ordinal regression we also assess whether charger density near workplaces affects the results. All results contradict the assumption that people will see charging infrastructure and that more char...

California plans to reduce emissions of long-lived greenhouse gases (GHGs) through adoption of new energy systems that will also lower concentrations of short-lived absorbing soot contained in airborne particulate matter (PM). Here we examine the direct and indirect effects of reduced PM concentrationsunder a low-carbon energy (GHG-Step) scenario on radiative forcing in California. Simulations were carried out using the source-oriented WRF/Chem (SOWC) model over California with 12 km spatial resolutionfor the year 2054. The avoided aerosol emissions due to technology advances in the GHG-step scenario reduce ground level PM concentrations by ~8.85% over landcompared to the Business as Usual (BAU) scenario, but changes to meteorological parameters are more modest. Top of atmospheric forcing predicted by the SOWC model increased by 0.15 W m-2, surface temperature warmedby 0.001 K, and planetary boundary layer height (PBLH)increased by 2.20 cm in the GHG-Step scenario compared to the BAU ...

This research focused on accelerating solar photovoltaic (PV) diffusion by collecting new market data and developing predictive modeling frameworks to test and refine understandings of household level motivations for adopting solar.

Three different household-level surveys were fielded: one for households who had installed PV on their current home or had signed a contract to do so (the Adopter survey), one for households that had seriously considered PV but had not installed it (the Considerer survey), and one for the general population who did not have PV on their current home (the general population survey or GPS). Survey respondents were from four U.S. states: New Jersey, New York, Arizona, and California. Details of recruiting and sampling are documented below.

Research projects on residential PV adoption often collect data only from PV adopters or from the general population. One of the innovations of this project was the three-pronged household survey data collection. By collecting similar data from three fairly different "statuses" with respect to adoption, the surveys provide a basis for understanding how those who do not have rooftop PV differ from those who have, for how and why people do (or don't) transition from not having to having rooftop PV on their home, and for understanding the characteristics and viewpoints of households who have scarcely, or not at all, entered the "PV consideration" track. All three surveys covered single-family owner-occupied households in each of the four target states used in the project -- Arizona, California, New Jersey, and New York - allowing a comparative approach to understanding how the factors that affect PV adoption vary by geography and policy conditions.

The General Population and Considerer surveys provide a basis for understanding opinions about and interest in solar, and how these relate to household demographics and other conditions. Paired with the Adopter survey, they also provide data for understanding how those who do not have rooftop PV differ from those who have, and for how and why people do (or don't) transition from not having to having rooftop PV on their home. The Adopter survey questions were designed to capture a broad range of information on what motivates and impedes households to install rooftop PV, as well as the details and timing of the decision and installation. Survey instrument development drew from existing PV adoption survey instruments, PV adoption literature, and research team experience, as well as from past work on household interest in energy efficiency, environmental attitudes, purchasing tendencies, and related knowledge. Early interviews and discussions with installers and others in the PV industry were also taken into consideration.

In 2023, some ******* battery-electric vehicles were sold in California, representing some **** percent of the total electric vehicle sales in the state that year. As technological advances led to an increase in available BEV models with a wider driving range, the sales volume for this EV segment has been steadily rising since 2013, when it recorded under ****** sales. The leading electric vehicle state in the U.S. For every ***** people in California, there were nearly ** electric cars, making it the U.S. state with the highest ratio of EVs per population, over ** EVs over the ratio recorded for the second in the ranking. The fast pace of the Californian EV market comes perhaps as no surprise, as the Golden State is also the largest car market across propulsion types in the United States. The battery-electric vehicle fleet in California has steadily risen since 2010. Comparatively, the gasoline-powered light-duty vehicle fleet fluctuated in the past years, dropping between 2021 and 2023. An expanding charging infrastructure To meet the charging demand of a growing electric vehicle fleet, California relies on its EV charging network. As of the fourth quarter of 2023, there were around *** electric vehicle supply equipment ports per 100 EVs in the state, a ratio far below the one recorded in most other states, partly due to the size of California's EV fleet. California's charging infrastructure further faces the same issue recorded on a global level: The largest share of its public and shared private network consisted of Level 2 chargers, which are alternating current (AC) chargers. AC chargers, in contrast to their direct current counterparts, tend to have longer charging times, which impact consumers' EV adoption. However, the Golden State is committed to expanding its infrastructure: California was the second state to receive the largest grants from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Program in 2023.
