Overcoming Obstacles to Widespread EV Charging in Strata-Owned Condos at UBC

In the context of a rapid-growing Electric Vehicle Ecosystem in Vancouver, The Wall Group is including Electric Vehicle (EV) charging Infrastructure in new residential developments. To overcome obstacles to widespread in EV charging infrastructure in Strata-owned condos and contributing to sustainability at University of British Columbia, the report is compiled to serve as a handbook for development design teams providing a set of best practices for metering & allocating ownership of EV charging stations to facilitate EV adoption in residential developments throughout the Lower Mainland (ref: REAP credit ID 4.1). As the methodology, the report provides a thorough compilation of: review of current technical and policy literature, site analysis, study of ownership and cost allocation process, analysis of load management systems, implementation strategy planning and development, and recommendation of policies and metering systems to develop future Residential Environment Assessment Program (REAP) policy.
