This September, 2020 Denver Post article lays out Colorado's draft plan to accelerate the use of electric-powered vehicles.


Key points from the Post article:


"Gov. Jared Polis’ draft plan to drastically cut greenhouse gas pollution in Colorado calls for an accelerated move to electric vehicles and buses, deep reductions of methane emissions from the oil and gas industry and at least an 80% drop in emissions from electricity generation."

And,


"The plan is the result of the Colorado Action Plan to Reduce Pollution Act, which Polis signed into law in May 2019, his administration said in a news release. That sparked a partnership between the Colorado Energy Office, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and the Colorado Department of Local Affairs, among others, to collect an inventory of emissions, anticipate the effects of 14 climate and energy bills enacted in 2019 and suggest ways to reduce those emissions."
