EV Strategy: Process for Recommendations Joan Rohlfs MWCOG January 17, 2012

EV Challenges Low market demand for PEVs discourages investment in charging infrastructure Questions about public/private sector roles Perceived barriers in permitting & inspection processes Inconsistent regulatory environment re - electricity sales, charges Lack of information re process of purchasing PEV and electricity for recharge (range anxiety)

EV Charging Infrastructure Priorities Residential charging installation Office/workplace Public
