A county in New Mexico engaged our team to help them advance their Zero-Emission Vehicle Plan, which supports the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) across both municipal operations and the broader community. These efforts also aligned with our client’s Climate Action Plan.
We began by assessing the county’s existing fleet, infrastructure, and policies to develop a phased transition strategy aligned with state regulations and local climate goals. We also conducted engagement sessions with the public and other key parties. Our outreach efforts included workshops and a community survey with over 500 responses.
Our team leveraged spatial analytics and geographic information systems (GIS) modeling to determine optimal charger locations, providing a quantitative and defensible methodology for the county’s infrastructure investment. Additionally, we used a multi-factor EV adoption model, producing a larger range of scenarios instead of a single forecast- supporting better infrastructure sizing and management.
As a result of this work, our client has a plan to rightsize their infrastructure and align it with demand across all sectors with a flexible, decision-ready framework that they can adapt over time.
