We thank you for your assistance. Results from the survey will be used by EV Smart Fleets project partners to provide a market assessment of the potential growth of electric vehicles in county, municipal, and state fleets.
Additional Information
Public fleets are seeing huge benefits to the deployment of electric vehicles (EVs), but there are barriers to adoption such as higher incremental costs, procurement processes, and insufficient charging infrastructure remain as critical barriers to adoption.
EV Smart Fleets seeks to address these barriers to EV adoption by aggregating state and local fleet purchases for EVs and charging stations through a multi-state aggregated EV solicitation and procurement agreement. EV Smart Fleets goals include:
- Accelerate electric vehicle adoption by public fleets
- Lower the purchase price of electric vehicles for public fleets by at least 15% through volume purchases and creative financing and ownership tools
- Increase access to a wider range of electric models and favorable prices for electric vehicle charging stations
