First Day of the EV Charging Infrastructure USA 2024 Conference kicked off today, here in Anaheim California. So many good speakers and great discussions, starting with the State of the EV Charging Market in the USA. Further into in some of my favorite discussions on building out the infrastructure and some of the challenges we have been faced with along the way, such as utilities, delays in electrical equipment such as switchgear, transformers and Breakers. ABB explained there ways of addressing these challenges by creating pre-engineering solutions allowing for flexibility in developing for today, but thinking about the tomorrow. Managing risk by making it – Safe, Scalable, Simple and Smart. Blink followed up by going through how they have learned by going through the methodology for determining the best site feasibility, Power requirements/utility coordination, Site Engineering design, permitting and construction drawings, streamlining Project Management and finally Testing/Validation/Client training. Continuing on the same path as Blink, BGIS spelled out their methods and needs for training and certifications for contractors and end users. Learning to design with Operations in mind, meaning starting at the beginning and coming up with the best practices for locations for equipment, network connectivity, safety and security while charging. All the sessions were very insightful and I look forward to another day tomorrow. Great meeting all those I was able to get around to speak with and look forward to partnering and building a network together. See you all tomorrow...
