The California Energy Commission (CEC) recognizes that recent announcements suggest potentially widespread adoption of the North American Charging Standard (NACS) for electric vehicle (EV) charging in North America. NACS is undergoing standardization as SAE J3400.
As a key regulatory authority on EV charging and a steward of public funds, the CEC observes market trends to inform its regulations and funding opportunities. The CEC announces no updated connector requirements for funding opportunities at this time. The below document summarizes factors the CEC will monitor as part of its continuous evaluation of the most appropriate technical requirements.

Additionally, the CEC plans to host a public workshop discussing steps to achieve improved charging interoperability during the fourth quarter of 2023, which will include discussion related to NACS/J3400. Workshop details will be announced at a later date on docket 22-EVI-06.
