A new bill was recently passed in California that will ban the sale of new portable gas-powered engines. In later years, this ban will extend to include gas-powered generators.
After January of 2024, nobody will be allowed to sell or purchase new items that are equipped with gas-powered off-road engines. This mainly targets lawn and garden equipment such as leaf blowers, weed whackers, and lawnmowers.
Once the initial zero-emission standards and policies have been rolled out, they will then extend to portable gasoline-powered generators. This includes generators for recreational vehicles, boats, and homes. These generators must meet zero-emission standards by 2028.
In a state that #3 in the most power outages, what the hell are they thinking?
