The City of Alexandria’s Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Readiness Strategy will outline a roadmap for charging infrastructure needs aimed at Alexandria residents, workforce members, and visitors.
This strategy will:
- Evaluate projections for future need for electric vehicle charging infrastructure;
- Identify optimal locations of private and public charging infrastructure with integration into a broader regional electric vehicle charging infrastructure network;
- Recommend charging infrastructure options, including hardware, business ownership and operating models, interoperability, and operations and maintenance;
- Review the city’s zoning, codes, permitting, and development processes and requirements to recommend updated language to promote and anticipate electric vehicle charging needs; and
- Recommend policies, approaches, and synergies for locating electric vehicle charging infrastructure at businesses, multi-unit dwellings, single-family homes, in the public right-of-way, and other locations.
Synergies with the City’s vehicle fleet electrification, public transit bus electrification, and other forms of mobility will also be evaluated. This program is identified as a key program to advance smart mobility and Environmental Action Plan 2040 goals. This initiative includes community engagement to evaluate priorities and opportunities.
