Abstract
Abstract: This study investigates the effect of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCS) on light-duty Electric Vehicle sales and the Total California rebates. Electric Vehicle Charging Stations (EVCS) are infrastructure facilities that allow for the charging of electric vehicles (EVs). I applied the before and after model with California state county using its community-level attributes and used the difference-in-difference design to identify a strategy for estimating the causal effects of these attributes. These attributes include EVCS installations by time, EV sales by time, rebate applications by time, the number of multi-unit housing units, and the median income levels. The empirical ev-idence of this study shows the estimated relationship between public EV charging installation and EV sales overall by community income level, housing density, and other relevant factors, the result shows that EVCSs is highly correlated with light duty Electric Vehicle adoption. For the investors, policymakers, and other stakeholders, this study provides evidence of a threshold of EVCS on Light Duty Electric Vehicle adoption and rebate in California.

Comment: Engagement with Previous Research:I have revamped the introduction and literature review sections to incorporate relevant scientific references that engage with previous research. These references now provide a context for the study and establish the basis for the research questions. Methodology and Data: I have expanded the methodology section to provide a clear and detailed description of the research methods employed. Additionally, I have included a presentation of the data sources and data collection process. Results Presentation: I have restructured the manuscript to present the results section explicitly, ensuring a more organized flow from the methodology to the results. Discussion Enhancement: The discussion section has been revised to provide a more comprehensive and analytical discussion of the findings. It now offers a deeper exploration of the implications of the results. Keywords Inclusion: I have added keywords to the manuscript to enhance its discoverability and indexing.
