Charger Types and Speeds
EVs can be charged using electric vehicle service equipment (EVSE) operating at different charging speeds.
Level 1Level 1 equipment provides charging through a common residential 120-volt (120V) AC outlet. Level 1 chargers can take 40-50+ hours to charge a BEV to 80 percent from...
Individual Benefits of Rural Vehicle Electrification
Today, the rate of EV adoption in rural areas is roughly 40 percent lower than it is in urban areas, and EV charging infrastructure expansion has mostly been concentrated in cities and along major highways. Lower density and longer trips have resulted in urban-rural disparities in micromobility...
Vehicle Types
This section provides an overview of the types of electric vehicles and types of charging infrastructure. It also discusses steps that States and localities have taken to prepare for increasing numbers of EVs by providing public charging stations.Student of the Year Awards
The United States Department of Transportation (USDOT) invests in the future of transportation through its University Transportation Centers (UTC) Program. The Congressionally-mandated program has been in place since...
Charging Forward: A Toolkit for Planning and Funding Rural Electric Mobility Infrastructure
This toolkit is meant to be a one-stop resource to help rural communities scope, plan, and fund EV charging infrastructure. A rural stakeholder—such as an individual property owner, business, town, or planning agency—can use the toolkit to identify key partners for a project, take advantage of...An Energy-Harvesting Railroad Tie for Improving Track Condition Monitoring and Safety
Researchers at the Railway Technologies Laboratory (RTL) of the Center for Vehicle Systems and Safety (CVeSS) at Virginia Tech have designed and developed an energy harvesting railroad tie, shown in Figure 1, to power trackside electronics and sensors for improving track condition...
