The ZEV Ready Framework is a step-by-step planning process for federal fleet electrification. The planning phase covers team coordination, training, policies, financial planning, and identifying candidates for zero-emission vehicles and electric vehicle supply equipment.
This presentation, part of the ESTCP Symposium in November 2022, discusses the EVI-LOCATE tool.
This presentation reviews NREL tools used to support federal fleet and facility managers. It also discusses cybersecurity considerations regarding EVSE.
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) was contracted by the Department of Defense (DOD) Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) and the Department of Energy (DOE) Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) to develop a web tool and complete pilot assessments for the installation of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). NREL has deployed Tiger Teams comprising engineers and fleet experts to support DOD and DOE on several EVSE site assessments since 2015. However, the advancements developed in support of this report, including a cost-estimation tool and geospatial mapping tool, will enable a user-driven path to assess EVSE needs. This report details the site design recommendations for Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.
Private enterprises, transit agencies, and governments around the world rely on NREL to evaluate their fleet electrification needs. From testing vehicle charging equipment in the lab, to working with fleets to adopt new types of vehicles, to helping agencies develop electric vehicle (EV) plans, NREL transportation analysts address a range of electrification challenges.
