Item 23 - Fleet Electrification and Electric Vehicle Charging Master Plan

Home Browse Search

The last component of Task 2 involves reviewing existing City fleet policies, climate goals, and planning documents that are relevant to the development of the final Master Plan. These policies may include, but not limited to, the City's fleet procurement process, vehicle and equipment replacement policy, maintenance policies, employee vehicle take- home policy (if applicable), the General Plan, the Hybrid and Alternative Fuel Vehicle Acquisition Policy, the Five - Year Strategic Plan, and the Climate Action Plan. ICF will synthesize the major takeaways that are relevant to the development of the Master Plan from the document review along with the existing City fleet and charger infrastructure information into a summary memo. Task 2 Deliverables • Data request form • Summary of interviews with fleet managers and drivers • A memo summarizing baseline fleet, existing fleet charging infrastructure, and relevant policies in the City Task 3: Electric Vehicle and Charging Station Assessment In Task 3, ICF will analyze the City's fleet and develop a fleet EV transition plan and replacement schedule, along with a detailed fleet charging infrastructure plan that supports the transition of the City fleet to EVs. ICF will use time in the project kickoff meeting to understand the City's top priorities with respect to fleet transition (e.g., compliance with CARB regulation, cost savings, state climate goals, etc.). ICF will rely on these priorities and criteria to develop a fully integrated EV plan. Task 3.1: Electric Vehicle Assessment EV Replacement Recommendation: Leveraging outcomes of Powe r u i d e `I f t existing fleet analysis as well as other information collected in Task 2, ICF will employ our in-house fleet assessment model Charged by ,,ICF (also known as PowerGuide) to analyze the City's fleets, characterize their operations, and develop tailored recommendations for the transition of fleet vehicles to EVs. ICF's PowerGuide is a robust tool, developed and refined over time for use with multiple municipal and fleet clients. Originally developed for our partnership with our extensive utility programs, ICF has continued to improve tool and the supporting data embedded in the model to assist almost 200 clients, including California municipalities such as the cities of Laguna Beach, Lodi, Pittsburg, and multiple utilities, as they developed plans for transitioning their vehicles, including their specialty vehicles, to EVs. Included in the PowerGuide is a comprehensive database of over 500 EV models comprising BEV and PHEV options for light -duty and MD/HD vehicles (Exhibit 7). This extensive database enables the ICF team to deliver highly customized fleet transition recommendations. By using this unique database, the ICF team will conduct an overview of currently available and forthcoming BEVs and PHEVs that could potentially replace the vehicle types currently used by the City. The ICF team also has a separate database for fuel cell EVs which it will use for vehicles where cost-effective EV options might not be available. ICF's EV model library is updated monthly to capture the latest EV models available and changes to vehicle attributes and pricing. Exhibit 7.
