Grid-Integration and other Installation Costs Study of Medium and Heavy Duty Vehicle Electric Vehicle Chargers

Grid-Integration and other Installation Costs Study of Medium and Heavy Duty Vehicle Electric Vehicle Chargers 1. Description of the Requirement Transport Canada is a leader in policies aimed at transitioning Medium and Heavy Duty vehicle (MHDV) fleets from Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) to zero-emission (MHZEV) through its Incentives for Medium- and Heavy-duty Zero-Emission Vehicles (iMHZEV) program. Transitioning to MHZEVs could simultaneously enable deep emissions reductions, both greenhouse gases (GHGs) and reduced criteria air contaminants (CACs), from the heavy transport sector. To stay attuned with developments in the MHZEV market to ensure adequate resources and continued effectiveness of the iMHZEV program, ODE collects and analyzes data on the economics of MHZEVs for use in its TCSim model which projects the impacts of policies/programs on MHZEV adoption. Transport Canada is seeing proposals for a Grid-Integration and other installation costs study of medium and heavy-duty Electric Vehicle chargers. In addition to integration costs, other installation costs such as labour, site re-designs, and permitting will be identified and calculated. 2.
