California state law (Civil Code section 1947.6) requires landlords to approve tenant requests to install EV charging stations in their dedicated parking spaces so long as the tenant is willing to pay for the charging station and associated costs, including installation and utility costs. However, there are several exceptions to this law, including properties where:

1. Landlords have installed EV charging stations in at least 10% of the designated parking spaces;
2. Tenants are not provided parking in their lease agreement; 
3. There are fewer than five parking spaces; and 
4. The unit is covered by a local rent control ordinance and a local EV charging station ordinance that was adopted on or before January 1, 2018.
