1 Journey into Electric Vehicles and EV Charging Infrastructure

2 3-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN Vision: A world-class City with a hometown feel Governance with integrity Aesthetics Balanced Learning Exceptional service Sustainability

3 SUSTAINABILITY MASTER PLAN 10-year Plan City Operations (23 projects) Focus areas: (Energy, Fleet, Water, Waste, Land Use & Transportation, Outreach, Finance Reduce Fuel, Energy, Water and GHG Emissions by 20% by % ROI over 10 years (over $4 million) 2013 & 2017 Greenhouse Gas Emission Inventory (City Operations & Community-Wide)

4 ELECTRIC VEHICLE FLEET 43 Electric Vehicles (Including 8 Extended Range Chevy Bolts) FY 2021 goal: 78 Electric Vehicles (60% of Administrative Fleet). Current Departments with EV s: Public Works, Parking, Procurement/Finance, Automotive, Historical Resources, Fire Dept. Future Departments to receive EV s: Human Resources, Economic Development and IT. EV s replaced vehicles that were not Emergency/Rescue-Recon vehicles

5 GEM CARS Currently have 12 GEM Electric Vehicles (Neighborhood Safety Aide and Special Activities Service Vehicle)

6 EV FLEET CONSIDERATIONS How many average daily miles are driven? Range fit EV criteria? Min of 20% range available at the end of the route/workday. Is the vehicle used for multiple shifts? Are there any ancillary devices that must be installed on the car that would require battery power (warning lights, laptop computers and DC to AC inverters) that can reduce range? Is the vehicle deemed mission essential after a hurricane? Tip: During a storm should anticipate the loss of commercial power. It is likely that all of your hard-wired Level 2 and Level 3 chargers will become inoperative if they are not connected to a backup facility generator. Estimate a 30% reduction in battery capacity over the battery s warranty. Constant fast charging will accelerate the reduction of battery capacity Do you have conventional fuel pool vehicles available for longer trips?

7 Currently: (16 Stations): (12) Level II & (4) Level III (Total: 22 charging ports) Public: (5) level II Dual Port Stations: (2) Parking Garage #2, (1) Garage #4 and (2) Garage #6, (2) Level III stations at City Hall (405 Biltmore Way) Private: (1) Private Level III and (6) Level II at Public Works Department; (1) Level III Youth Center; (1) Level II Trolley/Admin Office Future Implementation: 11 Charging Stations; 21 Charging Ports Zoning Code: Requires 2% of residential/non-residential off-street parking to be for EV parking and provide EV charging stations; 240 V availability throughout garage 9,500 Charging Sessions; Saved 10,600 gallons of fuel; Avioded 24,000 lbs of GHG CURRENT ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE

8 FUTURE EV CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE 12 Dual Pedestal Level II Charging Stations: Total: 24 Charging Ports FY19 (1) Kerdyk Tennis Center (4) Surface Parking Lot # 20 (1) Surface Parking Lot: # 7 (1) Surface Parking Lot: # 30 FY20 (3) New Public Safety Building Timeline: TBD (1) Surface Parking Lot: # 8 (1) Trolley Admin/Enforcement Office Potential additional locations: Merrick Park & Coral Gables Metro-Rail Station

9 What charging ports are on the cars you currently own? Range of Fleet? Placement of charging stations and their type, Level 2 or 3, is critical to the success of your EV fleet. When developing the infrastructure always allow for additional power capacity in case you wish to increase the number of chargers Remember that FPL could install a transformer, however at considerable cost, if your selected site does not have the required service available to install level 2 or 3 charging stations. Place level 2 chargers for vehicles in spots where they parked overnight. Consider purchasing dual port level 2 charging stations that can charge 2 cars simultaneously. Place them between two parking spaces. Level 3 chargers should be used in outlying areas that are the furthest away from the home base. Survey areas to ensure that the chargers are not placed in flood areas. Will the chargers be available to the general public, and if so, there should be a standardized billing company. EV CHARGING INFRASTUCTURE CONSIDERATIONS

10 After the warranty period expires on stations who will maintain them? Consider inexpensive dumb level 2 chargers for secure government parking areas that are not available to the general public. Create a map of all charging station locations (include level of service). Inspect/check the status of each site after a significant electrical storm. Avoid having a mix of charging stations from different manufacturers Each charging station site should include: owarning signs about the high voltage. osteel & concrete bollard poles to prevent vehicles from hitting them. odedicated parking spaces that state the space is designated for EV charging only. oemergency cutoff and service disconnect switches. osmall canopy to protect it from the rain. omultiple level 2 & 3 service. Consult with all cities and counties in your area before developing your infrastructure plan! EV CHARGING INFRASTUCTURE CONSIDERATIONS

11 ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION Multimodal transportation plan Free Trolley Service (Over 1.2 million riders per year) Bicycle/Pedestrian Master Plan Installing new bicycling infrastructure (10.5 to 34 miles) Programs to support safe bicycling Provide free bike racks to businesses Freebie Service (Year 1: 60,000 riders) Spin (first in Florida) Since FY16: 1.2 miles of sidewalk extensions. 232 crosswalks.
