The integration of electric vehicle charging systems within public transportation infrastructure projects is influenced by legislative mandates and owner requirements, particularly in the absence of such mandates. This presentation will examine existing mandates and various owner-imposed requirements to provide the audience with a comprehensive understanding of the electrical infrastructure impacts, which are closely linked to financial considerations. An example of a challenging owner requirement for a project will be discussed, illustrating how it led to the adoption of an alternative implementation method and enhancing the audience's grasp of the fundamentals of EV charging.
Presenter: Sean O’Rourke, Director of Electrical Engineering (Transportation), WSP in the US, bringing over 25 years of expertise in the design and construction of electrical infrastructure systems for transportation facilities nationwide.
