Enabling Access to Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure

Access to the public EV charging infrastructure is a key step to enable widespread EV adoption. Alectra has been investing in EV charging infrastructure to improve public access to charging. The Smart Cities team is engaged in developing a plan for deploying infrastructure at various Alectra offices to serve the employees, the general public, and Alectra’s fleet. The team also supports Alectra Energy Services in strategically deploying and managing EV charging infrastructure at community facilities and in delivering incentives to support customers with charging infrastructure at their businesses. The Smart Cities team also supports Alectra’s distribution planning by informing the forecasts of the impact of EV adoption on system capacity requirements.
