Sources of Electric Vehicle Charging at Scale

The City of Cincinnati’s Office of Environment and Sustainability is seeking information on business models, partnership structures, and technical approaches for deploying public‑access electric‑vehicle charging infrastructure (EVCI) on city‑owned assets. The RFI is purely informational—no funding commitments are disclosed—and aims to identify cost‑neutral or revenue‑generating solutions, equitable deployment strategies, and viable public‑private partnership (PPP) frameworks. Respondents must outline experience, propose PPP models, detail cost methodologies, address ADA compliance, and suggest data‑reporting and workforce development plans. • Provide business‑model concepts for installation, operation, maintenance, and possible ownership of chargers on city sites (garages, lots, parks, etc.). • Detail cost‑neutral or revenue‑generating PPP structures, pricing strategies, OCPP compliance, and financing pathways (grants, revenue sharing). • Outline equitable deployment plans for underserved neighborhoods, ADA compliance, data collection/reporting, and local workforce creation.
