Description (excerpt):

This paper examines the use of existing utility poles and streetlights to meet the growing demand for public electric vehicle charging while enabling equitable access to this infrastructure. Building on insights collected from current U.S. pilots and interviews with over 30 stakeholders across city governments, electric utilities, charging equipment manufacturers, and ridesharing companies, this paper offers stepwise guidance for U.S. cities and utilities interested in pole-mounted chargers.
