Mayor wants LA to be #1 city for EVs EVSE can influence adoption rates Where will public investment in
EVSEs generate highest benefit?
EVs require a completely new infrastructure to connect to electricity grid
Single-family residential: not an issue
Focus on Problem Areas: Multi-family residential Employment Centers Commercial Centers
Goal: Anticipate concentrations of EV ownership
Use 2008 Hybrid ownership data as proxy for EV ownership
Origins: Multifamily residential problem Destinations: Making sure they can
charge at destination

Data Problem: don’t know housing type by hybrid vehicle ownership.
Assumption: Hybrid owners reflect zip code housing type distribution

90071: no housing, but ranks 5th (1,070) by total hybrids – must be government/business/etc.
Multifamily charging is an issue: Mix of SFR and MFR

EVSE Investemnt Prioritization Index Ranking
Data Problem: don’t know exactly where hybrid owners commute
Assumption: use zip code trip distribution Methodology:
Weight % allocation of trips by actual number of hybrid vehicles in origin zip codes
Aggregate for a complete picture of destinations
Is destination charging a real concern? Average Commute range: 40 miles (r/t) Battery Range: 80-100 Miles Not a real concern given current travel
behavior, but people might travel differently with EVs

Top 10 Hybrid Destination Trips
Use Index to Allocate Funds to Origin Zip Codes that will benefit the most.
Know the top 10 destinations for these origins. Not imperative to invest in public charging
given vehicle range Need to monitor/track travel behavior Providing EVSEs at these stations could induce
greater adoption (but is it best use of public funds?
