The Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities will receive funding to purchase battery electric buses, associated charging infrastructure and a back-up generator to maintain bus service in a disaster situation. The charging infrastructure is an integral part of PSTA's long-term battery electric bus program.

Laredo Bus Facility Solar Canopies: Provide shade structures with integrated, grid tied photovoltaic cells to be erected on the bus storage lot at the Laredo Bus Maintenance Facility. This grant would allow ConnDOT to upgrade the upcoming purchases of buses and would fund the incremental cost of a hybrid bus compared to a conventional bus.

In the previous article on off-grid EV charging , the focus was on the energy storage battery and the DC-AC inverter that supplies the EV charger (and all of the other AC loads). Photovoltaic solar is arguably the most practical choice among renewable energy sources. Secondly, most residential-scale wind generators (i.e.

Several factors combine to make Puerto Rico an ideal place for solar power and microgrids. Ultimately, such technology could benefit any part of the world where the electricity network is vulnerable to outages and where increasing amounts of solar and wind power are being integrated into the power grid.

Anyone who would deploy any kind of large-scale EV charging project needs to work closely (and early) with their local electrical utility. Since 2010, OUC, a municipally-owned public utility, has installed hundreds of public charging stations, some powered by solar arrays.

In the quest to improve efficiency even more, the focus tends to be on the flashier parts of the drivetrain, like the motor (which certainly deserves it) and inverter (which arguably doesn’t, since efficiency is typically already ~99 %), while scant attention is paid to relatively unsexy things like charging cables and auxiliary/parasitic loads.

Installation is separate (and costs can vary widely), and GM has partnered with Qmerit, a national EV charging installation company, to make it easier for customers to find an installer. It’s a bit more expensive than Ford’s competing V2H product, comparable to the cost of home generators, and cheaper than home battery backup systems.
