The urban landscape is evolving, and with the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), the need to safeguard charging stations has become paramount. Head over to our latest blog post to learn more about crash rated bollards, ASTM ratings, and why being proactive can save you money. #crashratedbollards #evchargingstations #zumabollards https://lnkd.in/gCVsx_Pi

Our transportation system is transforming, from school buses to municipal fleets, electric vehicles are becoming more popular. Infrastructure, systems, and buildings will all need to adapt to accommodate these changes.

Walsall is set to install over 660 electric vehicle (EV) charging points by 2030, including 600 standard and 65 rapid chargers, as part of a new government-funded strategy. This aims to prepare for the upcoming ban on new petrol and diesel cars by 2035, significantly expanding the current infrastructure of just 16 publicly available charge points. The plan includes 280 standard EV charging sockets to be installed by 2026, with an emphasis on providing on-street chargers for residents without driveways. Local officials stress that this strategy will support the transition to electric vehicles and contribute to Walsall's goal of achieving carbon net zero.

Governor Kathy Hochul today announced that the largest electrified bus depot in #NewYorkState is now operational in #Buffalo, advancing the transition to a clean #publictransit system that reduces #greenhousegasemissions and improves the air for residents in congested urban areas. With 36 overhead charging systems in the Cold Spring maintenance garage and a new sub-station built to accommodate future expansion, the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (#NFTA) project will serve as a model for transit agencies around the state to transition from diesel fuel-powered transportation. NFTA plans for the Cold Spring garage to solely support #zeroemission vehicles by 2035. “We are building a transportation infrastructure that is cleaner, healthier and more sustainable, and the Buffalo bus depot is the newest feature of our efforts,”?Governor Hochul said.?“Our investment in electrified buses and charging infrastructure not only improves the environmental impact of the fleet itself, but encourages New Yorkers to make public transportation their first choice — resulting in cleaner air and a greener future for everyone.” The New York Power Authority (#NYPA) oversaw the design and installation of the overhead charging systems in four bus lanes at the Cold Spring garage over the last couple of years. The bus lanes were reconfigured for #electricbuses and the roof structure was reinforced to accommodate high-tech overhead pantograph dispensers. The new NFTA-owned substation was designed so it can be expanded to allow for full electrification. New York Power Authority President and CEO Justin E. Driscoll said,?“Transitioning municipal bus fleets to clean air technologies will lower emissions and improve #airquality throughout New York State. The Buffalo depot — now the largest electric bus depot in the state — is an excellent example of new charging infrastructure allowing transit agencies to convert from diesel to electric power. The Power Authority is committed to supporting the transformation of the state’s transportation system and helping the state reach its goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 85 percent by 2050.” Electric transit buses have no tailpipe emissions, lower maintenance costs, and effectively reduce the use of #fossilfuels. The transition of fleets throughout the state will help improve air quality and build healthier communities, especially in disadvantaged communities that are typically low-income or under-resourced neighborhoods that bear the brunt of vehicle #airpollution. NFTA received its first battery electric bus in 2022 and has 24 on site today. Twenty-one additional electric buses are expected to be operational over the next two years. The garage’s electrical capacity can currently serve about 50 buses, or half of the depot, and can be scaled up to serve the entire depot. NFTA has a goal of operating a 100 percent zero-emission bus fleet by 2035. ?????? Click/tap image below to view video on YouTube ??????

Updated EV charging signage coming to a highway near you! In a new #blog post, GCC’s Matthew Goetz discusses the Federal Highway Administration’s recent update allowing highway signs to feature information about specific locations of nearby #EV #charging stations, making it easier for EV drivers to locate them while on the road. The change comes at an opportune time as states are rapidly deploying EV charging #infrastructure with funding from Bipartisan Infrastructure Law programs. These signs have the potential to both enhance the EV driving experience and change perceptions about the accessibility of charging stations to non-EV drivers. GCC worked with states and other partners to submit a comment letter advocating for the adoption of this change. Read the full post on GCC’s website: https://bit.ly/blogGCC2224

It's really not that there isn't "enough" infrastructure... It's that the existing #EVChargers are not being maintained for proper and safe functionality. With so many current units down #EVDrivers continue to experience a great deal of #rangeanxiety IBP is FOCUSED on continuing to lead the #EVSE industry in EV Charging #maintenance and #repair.

??????The growing demand for home charging options is clear, by the rise in #EV users trailing charging cables across public highways, creating trip hazards and reducing inclusive mobility. As EVA England explains in its article, "Beyond the driveway": "Gul-e was driven by the need to support the predicted rapid uptake of electric vehicles. Its innovative cross-pavement solution allows residents to safely charge their EV on the street outside their home, using their own power supply, and without causing a trip hazard. Its main key benefits are: ?? Access to home charging: The Gul-e supports EV transition as up to 30% of UK households can access competitively priced at-home charging. ?? A discrete and safe option:?By removing cables trailing from the charger across to the EV, the Gul-e removes the risk of trip hazards outside of the users’ home. ?? Highly convenient and reliable:?Designed to withstand all weathers, to drain water and other debris, and not to deform or corrode, the Gul-e is a solid and permanent installation". EVA England is the voice for EV drivers in England. ??????

Great convo on how to deploy greater coverage of DC Fast Charging, especially into dense areas that may be constrained on electric capacity. There's a lot of power in not only matching fleets as base demand for charging (e.g. being an "anchor" fleet), but making chargers publicly available to meet ever growing charging demand. The Electrification Coalition actually submitted a DOE project along these lines earlier this year, working with cities to build out fleet-focused DCFC hubs, while also supporting public charging buildout!
