82012 | Philadelphia Community Charging Stations
The City of Philadelphia will utilize Carbon Reduction TIP funding to invest in the equitable expansion of electric vehicle charging infrastructure throughout the City. Given the density of row homes and multifamily housing in the City, investment in neighborhood charging solutions is key to facilitate the uptake of electric vehicles for residents who do not have access to charging overnight. Funds will be used for the acquisition, installation, and operation of publicly accessible electric vehicle charging infrastructure. In partnership with the Philadelphia Parking Authority, the City has identified community parking lot locations that are ideal locations for publicly available EV charging stations. Community lots were selected based on the following criteria:
-High rates of electric vehicle registrations in the surrounding zip code
-Proximity to disadvantaged communities
-Proximity to regional rail stations
-Filling in gaps in existing EV charging infrastructure
-Ease of installation and operation according to existing surface lot operations
In addition to these surface lot locations, the City is underway with an RFP process to select a vendor for curbside charging locations that will serve areas of the City with high densities of multifamily housing. Charging stations would be predominately level two, with potential for level three installation in appropriate locations. Where possible, charging locations will be determined in collaboration with the Office of Sustainability and Fleet Services to ensure that public charging stations can be utilized by fleet vehicles in addition to the public.
