Assess the Battery -Recharging and Hydrogen -Refueling Infrastructure Needs, Costs and Timelines Required to Support Regulatory Requirements for Zero -Emission Vehicles — CRC, 06/2023—Present Project Manager. Dr. Kong is overseeing the project funded by the Coordinating Research Council (CRC) to assess the national demands and cost of charging and hydrogen fueling infrastructure in support of transition the light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles to zero emission technologies. The project aims to thoroughly evaluate the infrastructural needs in light of the anticipated surge in ZEVs across the U.S and determine its implications on the energy supply infrastructure. San Diego Regional Zero -Emission Vehicle Incentive Program Strategy, SANDAG, 06/2023-Present Project Manager. Stephanie is leading the establishment of a zero -emission vehicle incentive program (ZEVIP) for the San Diego region. The ZEVIP aims to support the purchase of over 100,000 ZEV passenger vehicles between 2025-2035, while enabling significantly more ZEV purchases by residents in low- and moderate -income (LMI) households and/or people residing in Disadvantaged and Low -Income Communities. In addition, Stephanie is also helping SANDAG to establish inter -regional coordination on ZEV incentive programs with other MPOs and air districts and support local jurisdictions to meet their Climate Action Plan and clean transportation goals. Moreno Valley Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Master Plan, City of Moreno Valley, 05/2023-Present Deputy Project Manager. Stephanie is helping the City of Moreno Valley to develop an EV charging infrastructure master plan that aims to provide a systematic approach for the City to build a public accessible EV infrastructure network to safely facilitate the movement of electric vehicles within the City and surrounding areas. Stephanie is leading the efforts to evaluate EV adoption trends within the City, as well as identify locations and communities where public charging infrastructure will be needed. In addition, Stephanie is also helping the city to identify opportunities and apply for future capital grants through federal and state grant programs. Medium and Heavy -Duty Vehicle ZEV Blueprint, SANDAG, 0412023-0212024 Task Lead. Stephanie is leading the development of San Diego Association of Government (SANDAG) near -term and long-term ZEV implementation strategies that the region can take to accelerate the adoption of zero emissions medium- and heavy-duty (MD/HD) vehicles and infrastructure deployment. In addition, the strategies will also account for workforce training and development needs for the region to meet the MD/HD ZEV goals. California's Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation (ACF)—California Air Resources Board (CARB), 07/2020- 0212023 Technical Lead. The Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF) regulation is part of a comprehensive strategy that accelerates the adoption of zero -emission vehicles (ZEVs) in the medium and heavy-duty truck sector. The regulation requires State and Local government fleets, drayage trucks, high priority and federal fleets to phase in ZEVs over time starting 2024. Dr. Kong oversaw the development of emission benefits analysis and technology mix projection for this regulation. She worked closely with stakeholders from different regulated sectors and conducted numerous research and analyses to quantify the overall emissions, health, and economic benefits of the proposed regulation. California's Mobile Source Emissions Inventory —GARB, 07/2020-02/2023 Technical Lead. EMFAC is the official statewide emission inventory model that CARB uses to assess emissions from on -road motor vehicles including cars, trucks, and buses in California, and to support CARB's planning and policy development. Dr. Kong was the technical lead behind the latest EMFAC model updates, where she analyzed and incorporated substantial information on vehicle population, activity, and criteria pollutants and GHG emissions into the model. In addition, Dr. Kong also initiated the efforts to improve the spatial resolution of the existing model using transportation big data. gU11119 VII4kihill161to]:Y ICF.
