项目名称: Synthesis of Information Related to Highway Practices. Topic 53-08. Strategies and Programs For Electric Vehicle Charging
摘要: There are currently more than 1 million electric vehicles (EVs) in the nation, and this is envisioned to grow to 20 million by 2030 (about 7% of the total fleet). This 20-fold increase in 10 years and forecasted growth in fleets afterward will require additional charging infrastructure and distribution networks. A clear need exists for charging stations at the home end and at the non-home end. The introduction of driverless vehicles might increase the need for non-home charging, as many will likely be fleet vehicles. State departments of transportation (DOTs) have employed a variety of approaches to deployment and operation of charging stations, often through pilot programs. With fledgling needs, pilots may have been appropriate, but as EVs become a greater share of fleets in both consumer and freight vehicles, a consistent and sustainable strategy of implementation and operations may be needed. The objective of this synthesis is to document current strategies and practices in use by state DOTs to facilitate and coordinate the provision and operation of EV charging facilities. The synthesis will also include current plans to address the future maturity of EV fleets. Information to be gathered includes (but is not limited to): (1) Practices for EV charging infrastructure deployment, delineation of operating and maintenance responsibilities, public/private partnerships, and pricing strategies; (2) Plans for expanding pilot programs into full scale build-outs (both for consumer and freight vehicles, and in urban and rural contexts); (3) Funding strategies to pay for stations and cost recoup strategies through pricing to users; (4) Guidance or technical assistance to local governments (e.g., rezoning needs for home-based charging facilities, charging for public and private parking lots and garages, etc.); and (5) State DOT policies for EV charging stations along curbs of state-owned roadways or in public rights-of-way. Information will be gathered through a literature review, a survey of state DOTs, and follow-up interviews with selected agencies for the development of case examples. Information gaps and suggestions for research to address those gaps will be identified.
