EVs, EV Charging & Storage

SRP Supercharging EVs

Salt River Project

“We’ve not gone down the path of wanting to own and operate or develop our own charging sites. What we’ve wanted to do was let the market take care of that, and instead worked to support the market development.”

An Alliance for Transportation Electrification

Utility’s Role

“Transportation is the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions. We believe decarbonization is the fundamental driver toward an acceleration of EV adoption, good utility programs, private sector investment, and creative rate design.”

EV Adoption

“We have ongoing dialogue with automakers, to understand better how we can assist them in bringing these vehicles to market. Whether that’s working with dealers to help them understand availability of our infrastructure programs, even in the sales process, or understanding what they are going to need, we want to make this as smooth as possible.”

EV Leaders: Arizona Public Service

EV Adoption

“There are more tools and services offered that rely on artificial intelligence. We are starting to use some of these cool new tools to understand the scale at which adoption is occurring within our service territory, which will be critical for APS to know to meet future demand.”

EV Impacts on the Grid and Consumers

AEIC Members Share Knowledge

“AEIC members throughout North America are responding to these challenges by leveraging government funding and incentives for upgrading the grid to meet the projected future demand for electricity to power EVs and to build out the vehicle charging network. These efforts are also supported by robust consumer education and engagement campaigns.”

Driving the EV Revolution: EY Americas

EVs

“For EVs to become a resource rather than a challenge to grid stability, we urgently need to see coordinated plans for grid expansion and enhancement, as well as digital technologies for two-way communications and pricing between EVs and grids.”

Driving the EV Revolution from Two Directions

EVs

PUF presents two companies driving the EV revolution. EY Americas has experts focused on collaboration across the ecosystem and helping clients embrace EV adoption. Fermata Energy was founded with intentions of accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles and the transition to renewable energy.

Engineering the EV Charging Revolution

1898 & Co./Burns & McDonnell

“On fleet transition studies, we’ve been looking at sites in terms of how we best engineer electric vehicle charging infrastructure. We approach this from a perspective that considers changes behind the meter, impacts we are going to create on the grid side, and upgrades to incorporate on the grid.”
