2:29 - We hosted Mohammad Akhlaghi, CEO of Plugzio. The Canadian startup is focused on Level 1 charging in locations where vehicles stay for a long time and owners don't own these properties. This includes apartment complexes, workplaces, schools, universities, airports, hotels. Plugzio have developed their own smart outlets that are very easy to install, have 3 options for wireless connectivity and offer low cost option for user. Users are not limited to EV drivers. Application includes micromobility, powering appliances (construction workers, lawn care contractors), etc. Excellent application scenario is utility poles or street lights, which allows for charging cars parked on street. It is actually equity solution for LMI communities that don't have access to garage or private driveway.
45:48 - We then switched gears to talk about installation of home EVSE. Stan has shown what considerations have to be made in order to select the right EVSE, wiring size & length, load center available capacity, permit requirement and incentives. There are lots of incentives, including federal tax credit, NJ grants and now also PSE&G funded program of $1,500 per L2 install as well as upgrade of electrical system. PSE&G has been granted $80M for residential EVSE installations.
59:07 - Stan presented recent developments in federal administration, which sets up record high support and priority for electrification of federal fleet and climate program goals in general. Electrification Coalition has launched EV policy showroom. Also, Plug in America just released report list of 25 states with the strongest EV support policy. Stan has run some data analytics with the PIA Scores along with gas prices and EV registrations. This has revealed interesting trends. This research will be published separately. Stan also reported on EAA Chapter leader meeting on 1/14/2021, which will become now quarterly.
