The electric mobility ecosystem continues to grow and change—but what exactly are the new business models and tech-enabled solutions that are working? And what are the results?     Join Gabe Klein and our team in D.C. at #Deploy24 next week to find out! On Wednesday, December 4, we’ll be talking with the changemakers taking mobility infrastructure from vision to implementation at the panel “Convenient, Reliable, and Everywhere: Building a National Charging Network.” Hear Santos Ramos, PE, Kimberly Okafor, Josh Cohen, Virginia Hewitt, MBA, and Albert Gore explore these topics: 🚍 How can we maximize charging infrastructure potential with shared use and multi-modal connections? ⚡ What are key learnings from fast charging along highway corridors that serves medium- and heavy-duty fleets? 🔌 How can we implement the ubiquitous opportunities for Level 2 charging at curbsides, community hubs, and destinations?   Not registered yet? Check out the agenda, speakers, Exchange info page, DOE Pathways to Commercial Liftoff report insights, and FAQs on DeployTogether.com for more details!

The Transportation Annual Technology Baseline (ATB) is the go-to source for current and future cost and performance data for vehicle and fuel technologies. The newly released 2024 edition provides expanded vehicle classes, new fuel pathways, additional context-setting reference information, and more. The updated data can be found on the Transportation ATB website, along with a suite of tools to help users easily access and leverage the data to meet their transportation analysis needs. Learn more and start using the data today: https://lnkd.in/gDHtQesU Don’t miss the webinar on Dec. 3rd at 11am ET to learn what’s new, see technology-specific web demos, and get your questions answered.

We are thankful to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory for helping create and highlight our Public EV Charging Playbook! Check out the playbook: https://lnkd.in/eG2HcWqa And our virtual tour:

Join Argonne National Laboratory experts at 11 Pacific / 2 Eastern today, Friday, November 22, for a webinar on 🚗 🔋 ⚡ Electric Vehicles and Their Batteries: A Life Cycle Perspective on Environmental Impacts 🚗 🔋 ⚡ Life cycle analysis (LCA) is used to evaluate the environmental impact of products, processes, and systems. Argonne National Laboratory’s R&D GREET model (Greenhouse Gases, Regulated Emissions, and Energy Use in Technologies) has been developed over the past 30 years to support LCA across many products and sectors. This webinar will discuss the development of the R&D GREET model along with its application to electric vehicles and their batteries. Register here ➡ https://lnkd.in/g2a4x6cZ

Our EV Working Group meets this Wednesday and Friday to discuss and vote on recommendations from the charging network, medium- and heavy-duty vehicle, and grid integration subgroups. Meetings are open to the public. Watch last week's meeting with recommendations here: https://lnkd.in/gJxkwRC6 Register for the upcoming meetings: https://lnkd.in/gh22uhgf

Electric vehicles are more than just a clean, efficient way to get around. They provided support for community resilience when Hurricanes Helene and Milton recently devastated many communities in the Southeast. See how real EV owners helped their neighbors in a time of need: Jason's neighbor kept the refrigerator running with his Kia EV6. 🔌 https://lnkd.in/gfDgAsVa Michael's Rivan R1T was swept away by floods. When he got it back, it still worked--and he used it to power a food truck to feed neighbors and a chainsaw to clear debris from roads. 🌳 https://lnkd.in/g6vbYC_m Justin and Erica each used a Ford F-150 Lightning to power a veterinary practice. 🐴 https://lnkd.in/gYT9J8cc Chris kept his CPAP running and the AC on using a Ford Lightning. 🌬 https://lnkd.in/g4sdjXBF These inspiring stories of resilience show us that EVs provide a foundation for innovation across all aspects of everyday life, as well as in emergencies.

Let the testing begin! 👩🔬 The ChargeX Consortium and Joint Office are excited to help the charging industry continue to innovate at scale with our interoperability test cases at the CharIN Testival this week! 🔌 K. Shankari will use an open-sourced approach to managed charging to show how EV-controlled departure time can work—all using code that is freely available in the open-source EVerest project, meaning you can take it home with you! She’ll be there for office hours and to help troubleshoot. ⚡ ChargeX Consortium will continue its mission to improve the customer’s charging experience by facilitating interoperability testing and demonstrating remote charge discovery between an EV and EVSE in different locations to enable charger testing, called Remote Test Harness.  Learn more about the event: https://lnkd.in/gXyUXqXN
