Electrification is coming to public safety, and faster than you realize, but your department is not ready for it. For electric vehicles (EV) to function in a mission-critical capacity your department requires a robust, resilient charging infrastructure. In other words, your emergency services facilities and systems need to be upgraded to be ready for EV's. This evolution is similar to what emergency services went through in the early 1900's changing from horses, wagons and foot patrols to police cars, paddy wagons, and automotive fire apparatus. First, we will discuss EV architecture and characteristics, and the advantages it has for emergency service use. Then we will consider the infrastructure we need to support those EV's. Finally, we will discuss the additional benefits these upgrades will provide to your department and your community. The stacked values of electrification will benefit your department and community for decades to come.
