Because of the diversity of charging needs at airports and the varied policy environments in which airports operate, no single roadmap describes how to best install electric vehicle charging. Furthermore, an airport may use multiple approaches to owning and operating charging infrastructure. To help simplify this complex space, this planning guide categorizes charging into eight use cases.
ACRP Web-Only Document 61: Planning for Future Electric Vehicle Growth at Airports, from TRB's Airport Cooperative Research Program, is designed as a primer to help educate airport staff and practitioners on the technologies and processes associated with charging infrastructure. The guide was developed in Phase I of ACRP Project 03-71 that will include additional products in Phase II.
