Santa Ana remains committed to reducing our carbon footprint and encouraging the use of zero emission vehicles. Santa Ana is also dedicated to investing funds into communities to help reduce air pollution generated by mobile sources and improve air quality within the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s (SCAQMD) jurisdiction.
We installed 13 additional electric fleet vehicle chargers at City Hall, Downtown, Corporate Yard, and the Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center.
In April 2021, the City-owned 5th and Spurgeon parking garage opened a Tesla Supercharger station equipped with 20 fast chargers. This is a result of the first public-private partnership with Tesla in Orange County. The station will further Santa Ana’s efforts as a Green City, provide an amenity to residents and visitors, and increase patronage to downtown businesses.
