PREVIOUS RELATED ACTION:
On June 3, 2024, City Council approved a site host agreement with EVCS at Palomares Park. On April 3, 2023, City Council approved an agreement with SCE and Los Angeles County for the construction of EV charging stations at Palomares Park.
DISCUSSION:
Currently the City has three sets of EV chargers, 19 at Palomares Park, three in the Water Resources yard, and two in the Water Resources staff parking lot. EVCS will collect the proceeds generated from the sale of electricity from the equipment and pay the city $0.03 per kWh of electricity sold to customers utilizing the Level II equipment in addition to 100% of the cost of electricity utilized by the equipment.
The ChargePoint EV charging stations were completed as part of the new Water Resources Department building construction in 2024. The agreement included one year of ChargePoint Assure prepaid data and a one-year warranty ending May 20, 2026. The ChargePoint annual subscription fee is currently $3,000 (Cloud plan); and once the warranty is exhausted in 2026, an annual ChargePoint Safeguard Care will be purchased in the amount of $7,498 for equipment maintenance. Finally, charging fees paid by EV owners for electricity consumption will be revenue within the Water Fund.
It is expected the City will receive annual revenues of approximately $5,000, of which $3,000 will be allocated to the Water Fund and $2,000 to the General Fund. This allocation of revenues is tied to the anticipated use of each charging station.
Staff is seeking approval of the attached resolutions to increase estimated revenues and appropriate funds accordingly.
