Introduction

MnDOT's Office of Sustainability and Public Health has developed this Electric Vehicle (EV) Guidance to provide information for facilities staff and the public about electric vehicles and general guidance for installing EV charging stations. The Electric Vehicle Guidance is organized into three main sections: charging basics, site design, and MnDOT-specific guidelines related to installing and operating EV charging stations at MnDOT facilities.

Charging Basics

Charging Station Types

EV chargers are classified into three categories: Level 1, Level 2, and direct current (DC) fast charging (Exhibit 1). Charging times range from less than 30 minutes to 20 hours or more based on the type of EV charger or EV supply equipment (EVSE), the type of battery, how depleted the battery is, and battery capacity. All-electric vehicles typically have more battery capacity than plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, so charging a fully depleted all-electric vehicle takes longer.1

For more information about charging infrastructure and equipment, visit the US Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy website.2

EV Charging Resources

How do I find an EV charger when I'm not at home?

There are many online resources to find an EV charging location. For the most current EV charging locations and performance information for public chargers, visit the Plugshare.com website.

How do I use an EV?

The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) developed a how-to video for driving and charging a 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV at MnDOT (YouTube video) that applies to other EVs. Every EV owner's manual also includes charging instructions.

Site Design

This section provides general guidance for facilities staff to consider for EV charger installation, access, and operation. Under each main topic, subtopics are listed to provide additional information related to specific components of an EV charger.

For MnDOT-specific guidance, please see the following section ("MnDOT-Specific Guidance"), which provides standards that staff at facilities must follow to align with MnDOT business practices.

Site Considerations

There are many factors to consider when choosing where to locate EV chargers, including available locations for installation and host site priorities. The following section briefly describes some aspects to consider during the planning process.

Connection to Power

Installing a charger may require a dedicated circuit along with the proper conduit for connecting to a power source. In general, costs for installing an EV charger increase the farther a charger is from an existing circuit or outlet, especially if additional trenching or drilling is required.

Networking & Technology

Some EV chargers, especially public EV chargers, will connect to telecommunication networks using Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or cellular connections. A network connection is crucial to providing drivers access to the EV charger and parking and metering information. The host site's network connection ability should be evaluated to ensure stability and avoid complications such as limited network connectivity in parking garages.

Note: Manufacturers are exploring options for connecting drivers with an EV charger through smartphones or built-in vehicle technology to manage user messaging and technology advances that provide information about the charging status for an EV.

Infrastructure

Construction and installation costs can vary depending on the landscape, walkways, or other physical structures at the site.

EV building codes may result in an upfront cost during the initial construction phase of the charger. The installation of an EV charging station can be less expensive when included during the initial construction of the building compared to a retrofit. Typically, retrofit costs include labor expenses for demolition, trenching and boring, balancing circuits, and new permitting costs. A proposal for the City of Denver’s EV infrastructure building code (Exhibit 2) shows cost estimates for EV-Capable and EV-Ready parking spaces for both new construction and retrofit.


Exhibit 2. Cost Estimates for EV-Capable and EV-Ready Parking Spaces in Denver4

EV Infrastructure Requirement During New Construction

During Retrofit Savings

EV-Capable (panel capacity + raceway)

$300 per space $2,500 per space $2,200 per space

EV-Ready (full circuit) $1,300 per space $6,300 per space $5,000 per space

Location Context and Environmental Conditions

The location where charging stations are installed can affect charger configuration. For example, a covered parking space or garage will have different needs than standalone chargers that are exposed to the elements. These different location contexts can affect the type of mount needed for the charger and the appropriate cord management system.

Consider the environmental conditions of the site and try to minimize obstructions to the charger from extreme weather conditions like flooding. If the charger will be outside, consult with your EV charger provider for more information on restrictions.

Installation

Charge Level

There are three types of EV chargers (Exhibit 3). Direct current (DC) fast chargers have the fastest charging times compared to Level 1 or Level 2 chargers but also have much higher costs. See the EV charging basics section for additional details.

Exhibit 3. Electric Vehicle Charging Station Speed Comparison5

Type of Station Speed of Charge (miles per minute)

Est. Per Installed Station Cost (USD)

Minutes of Charge to Drive 100 miles

Level 1 120 Volt (AC) 0.1 $500 - $1,000 1080 (18 hours)

Level 2 240 Volt (AC) 0.4 $2,000 - $5,000 240 (4 hours)

50 kW (DC) 2.9 $60,000 to $100,000 35

150 kW (DC) 8.7 $100,000 to $150,000 12

350 kW (DC) 20.4 $150,000 and up 5

Mounting EV Chargers

Most EV chargers are either mounted to a wall or free-standing, and there are multiple versions of both types of installations. For example, the typical configuration for wall-mounted chargers is to mount flush against a wall, but they may also be installed on a pole or similar structure (Exhibits 4-6).

Charger Cords and Cord Management

Different types of EV charger mounts have different cord configurations and management systems. For example, chargers can include one or two cords which may retract or have hangers to keep the cords off the ground.

Charger Safety and Protection

The charging station should not interefere with pedestrian traffic or be a tripping hazard. Locate the dedicated charging parking spaces away from hazardous areas. Additionally, it is important to protect EV chargers from accidental vehicle collisions. Integrating the use of car stoppers, bollards, or elevated connector mounting should be used whenever possible to prevent pedestrians from tripping and to protect the chargers (Exhibit 7).

Exhibit 7. EV Charging Station Protection6




Access

Accessibility

Where feasible, all spaces for EV chargers should be safe and accessible for drivers and passengers of all physical abilities. Providing accessible spaces also limits trip hazards and liability concerns. Exhibit 8 shows an example accessible space.

https://afdc.energy.gov/files/u/publication/pev_workplace_charging_hosts.pdf


Exhibit 9. Guidance for compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines.

Number of spaces

4% (e.g., 1 in 25 spaces) but no less than one of electric vehicle (EV) charging spaces, in any given parking facility, must be accessible compliant. These spaces are accessible electric vehicle (EV) charging spaces, not ADA parking spaces.

Parking stall 11 feet minimum wide by 18 feet minimum long. Maneuvering clearance width

Minimum 36 inches wide, hash-marked, at the top of the parking space between the charging station and the vehicle.

Accessible route slope/ cross slope

Accessible Route Slope and Cross Slope Maximum 1:20 (5 percent) running slope and 1:48 (2%) cross slope; Accessible vehicle spaces 1:48 (2%) in all directions.

Accessible ramps A ramp or curb-cut must be accessible in order to establish an accessible route to and operation of charging station.

Side access aisle

Side access aisle of 60 inches minimum in width to allow space for wheelchair and equipment in and out of space. (When paired with an 11-foot wide accessible parking stall this is both van and car accessible).

Reach range The front and side of the EVSE must have 48 inches of space to allow reach to all operable parts from a wheelchair.

Accessible controls Operable with one hand and not requiring tight grasping, pinching, twisting of the wrist or force more than 5 pounds.

Cord Length / Cord Management system

Cord Length must be a minimum of 20 feet long. The EVSE must incorporate a cord management system or method to eliminate potential for cable entanglement, user injury or connector damage from lying on the ground.

Posted signage

“Accessible EV Charging Station” signs shall be centered at the head end of the parking space a maximum of 96 inches from the head of the spaces and be mounted 60 inches minimum and 66 inches maximum from the floor of the space. “Electric Vehicles only” stenciled graphics are required on each of the parking pad.

Additional items for ADA Compliance of Level 2 EV charging stations:

Facility Accessibility

Must be connected by a minimum of 48-inch-wide accessible route in proximity (not necessarily adjacent) to the entrance of the building. If station is for multiple buildings, access must be to the nearest accessible walkway. Mobility hubs and gas stations where the sole function is to fuel the vehicle, stand-alone parking lots and stand-alone parking structures do not need to have an accessible route.

Additional non-ADA requirements for all Electric Vehicle charging stations:

Posted signage

“Charging station Electric Vehicles Only” signs shall be centered at the head end of the parking space a maximum of 96 inches from the head of the spaces and be mounted 60 inches minimum and 66 inches maximum from the floor of the space. “Electric Vehicles only” stenciled graphics are required on each of the parking pads.

Bollards Install bollards that are 3-feet to 4-feet in height to protect the station equipment from accidental impact (if stand-alone charging station).

Payment options/card readers

If the stations require payment, they must be Payment Card Industry compliant to allow direct use of a credit or debit card at the station itself. Stations may also offer additional payment methods including subscription methods, smart cards, or smart phone applications.

Other considerations Ensure that bollards, wheel stops and curbs do not obstruct the approach and use of charging station.

Reach Conditions

All EV chargers must have a have a maximum accessible reach range of 48", but some chargers have an operable part that could be less, requiring additional work before installing (Exhibit 9). For example, one brand of charging stations has an operable part located 46.7” from grade level. If the unit is mounted on a 6” high curb, the operable portion would be over 52.7", which is outside of the accessible reach range. These types of charging stations may be installed following the guidance of Conditions 1A, 1B, or 2 (See "MnDOT Charging Station Design Conditions") because the 46.7" height of the operable part would fall within the 48" limit.


Exhibit 10. Unobstructed and obstructed side and forward reach conditions for accessibility 8

Standard Parking Space

Making charging stations accessible is a top priority and all new charging stations should be made accessible where possible. Where compliance with the above guidelines is technically infeasible due to existing site constraints, the following guidance can be used. A dedicated charging parking space must be at least 18' long by 9’ wide with a maneuvering clearance width of 36” all around the charging stations to ensure safe and easy movement for pedestrians (Exhibit 10). The dedicated charging parking space should be away from hazardous areas.

Exhibit 10. Standard Parking Space Dimensions9

Pedestrian Traffic

Placing charging stations near building entrances or elevators can help with visibility and accessibility. However, charging stations should not interfere with pedestrian routes. Cords especially can be a tripping hazard if they are not properly managed (see EV Charger Cords and Cord Management).

Lighting

Sufficient lighting is important for users' safety, visibility, and to deter vandalism. Lighting allows users to read signs and operate chargers with ease. Dim lights limit users’ ability to see cables, which could create tripping hazards.




Signage and Wayfinding

Signage designates charging spaces and provides clarity on who may park in the designated location, similar to signs for handicap parking, curb striping, or “No Parking” signs. A combination of written and visual cues is recommended for signs, including language such as "Electric Vehicle Charging Only" or similar to prevent non-EVs from parking in these dedicated spots (Exhibits 11 and 12). The signs shown in Exhibit 12 can be ordered from the MnDOT sign shop.

Wayfinding helps drivers find their way to the charging spaces and can maximize EV use. Examples include signs located on streets, parking areas, highways, and pavement markings.

Operation

Host-Operator Agreements

Ownership and management structures can impact the installation of a charger. The relationship between the host and the utility is essential to install and maintain the charging station.

Metering

Metering allows the charging station’s electricity to be isolated from the rest of the building's electrical power. For locations with multiple charging stations and payment required to charge, the typical practice is to separately meter. Smart meters can help users and utilities balance electrical demand across peak energy times.


MnDOT-Specific Guidance

This section provides standards for facilities staff to follow when installing or operating EV chargers to be consistent with MnDOT business practices. These include MnDOT-specific details about charging station design conditions, installation, and operation of public and non-public EV chargers at both public locations and MnDOT-owned facilities.

EVSE Master Contract

The Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement has contracted with several vendors to provide EVSE for state facilities. The most current EVSE Master Contract is available online at the Office of State Procurement's Website.

MnDOT Charging Station Design Conditions

MnDOT Building Services developed MnDOT-specific charging station installation templates for Districts, or specialty service sites, that want to self-perform the charger installation. These templates provide the layout for charger installations depending on site conditions. For each site condition, a description of the conditions is provided. Full-sized plans are available to view in the online appendix at the MnDOT Sustainability and Public Health iHUB Webpage.

For Conditions 1A, 1B, and 2 listed below, the charging station must be mounted at the driving surface level. This is necessary for charging stations from manufacturers for which an operable part of the device is mounted too high to comply with the accessible reach range when the device is mounted on a 6" high curb. Please see the accessibility section for more details.

Condition 1A

The charging station is set behind the curb line and mounted at the level of the driving surface. The horizontal surface behind the curb may be a sidewalk, turf, or landscaping. Applies to chargers with fixed height to the highest operable component between 42" – 48".

Exhibit 13. EV Charging Station Installation Template Condition 1A

Condition 1B

The charging station is set behind the curb line and mounted at the driving surface level. The horizontal surface behind the curb may be sidewalk, turf, or landscaping. Parking stall provides curb ramps for easy access to the sidewalk. Applies to chargers with fixed height to the highest operable component between 42" - 48".

Exhibit 14. EV Charging Station Installation Template Condition 1B


Condition 2

The charging station is set in front of the curb line and mounted at the driving surface level. The horizontal surface behind the curb may be sidewalk, turf, or landscaping. Applies to chargers with fixed height to the highest operable component between 42" - 48". This arrangement minimizes obstructions on the sidewalk but may complicate some maintenance activities such as snowplowing.

Exhibit 15. EV Charging Station Installation Template Condition 2


Condition 3

The charging station is located in the center of a lot where the parking stalls are nose-to-nose with no curb or wheel stops. Applies to chargers with fixed height to the highest operable component between 42" – 48".



Condition 4

The charging station is set behind the curb line and mounted at the driving surface level. The horizontal surface behind the curb may be sidewalk, turf, or landscaping. This condition applies to chargers with adjustable height to the highest operable component.



MnDOT EV Chargers

Visitor Accessible EV Chargers at MnDOT Facilities

Chargers located in areas with unrestricted access to the public at all times, normally marked as "visitor parking," including MnDOT visitors to the facility.

Target users and access Visitor-accessible EV chargers are intended for visitors on state business during normal business hours (e.g., 8 am – 4:30 pm, Mon-Fri), including MnDOT employees and non-MnDOT visitors.

Outside of business hours, any EV may use the visitor-accessible chargers, including EVs operated by non-visitor MnDOT employees, in most situations. One exception is where a gate prevents access to a visitor-accessible EV charger outside of business hours. In this situation, non-visitor MnDOT staff may not use the EV charger since the resource would not be available to the general public.

No parking is allowed in EV charging stalls by non-EVs at any time. Violators are subject to towing at vehicle owner's expense. The decision whether to tow will be made at the discretion of the district engineer and/or facility manager.

Payment EV chargers currently used by MnDOT do not have the capability to collect a fee. A full 4-hour charge is estimated to cost less than $2.00 in electricity at most MnDOT facilities.

MnDOT has determined that EV charging may be provided at no cost since it advances administration and agency goals to promote EVs and reduce carbon pollution. Further, the fixed costs of collecting fees (hardware/controllers, data fee, and service charges) may exceed the nominal revenue collected, especially as utilization is still growing.

MnDOT Users As a courtesy, MnDOT staff should place a business card or other contact information in the vehicle window while the car is charging in case of an emergent charging need by other users.

Signage Signs must clearly mark which parking stalls are intended for EV charging and there must be at least as many dedicated stalls as there are charging ports. This does not prohibit charging from other stalls not marked "EV Parking Only," where feasible.

Signs should clarify the following information using the text below, or similar.

• EV Parking Only • Visitor Use from 8 am – 4:30 pm • Limit duration to 4 hours • Disclaimer of liability


Exhibit 18. Example signage from Ramp F adjacent to MnDOT Central Office.

Existing EV charger at Water's Edge in the MnDOT Metro District Metro District was a leader in supporting EV use and installed the first visitor-accessible MnDOT EV charger in 2017. The install preceded broader agency discussions about EV charging and included a pay-for-use EV charger. The charger is expected to remain in place for its useful life and retain pay-for-use status. The same business practices outlined in this section apply to this charger with the exception that anyone actively charging their EV is able to use the EV charger at Water's Edge at any time since they are paying for the service.

Future accommodations EV use is expected to increase over time along with charging needs. When demand increases, additional efforts may be required to differentiate users (e.g., MnDOT hang tags) and/or allow users to reserve charging times.

Visitor-accessible Outlets at MnDOT Facilities

MnDOT facilities may have existing parking spaces with outdoor access to standard electrical outlets (Level 1 Chargers) that can be used to charge MnDOT staff's personal EVs. Unlike the Level 2 EV chargers, staff provide their own charging cable to connect to an outlet. Compared to a Level 2 charger, Level 1 chargers take more than five times longer to recharge a car.

Target users and access District Engineers and/or facility managers have discretion over whether to allow and facilitate this type of EV charging, but if use is allowed, access to outlets cannot be restricted to MnDOT staff only.

Payment There is no mechanism for collecting payment to use a Level 1 charger. The Level 1 120-volt connection costs the agency less than $1.00 in electricity per 4-hours of charging; similar to operating a coffee pot.


Cords Electrical cords connecting EVs to public outlets cannot cross areas where people normally walk and may cause a tripping hazard.

MnDOT Users As a courtesy, MnDOT staff should place a business card or other contact information in the vehicle window while the car is charging in case of an emergent charging need by other users.

Signage MnDOT encourages the installation of signs to clearly mark which parking stalls are intended for Level 1 EV charging. Signs can include the following information using the text below, or similar.

• EV Parking Only • Limit duration to 4 hours – optional • Disclaimer of liability

Non-Public EV Charger at MnDOT Facilities

Non-public EV chargers are used for charging MnDOT EV fleet vehicles. Chargers are in secured parking areas where vehicles are commonly stored overnight or when not in use. Non-MnDOT vehicles are not typically allowed in these areas.

Non-public EV charger access is managed by District and/or facility management who may allow visitors using MnDOT fleet vehicles to access these chargers (such as situations where facilities do not have visitor-accessible EV chargers). MnDOT prohibits employees from parking personal vehicles in MnDOT buildings. If a visitor driving a MnDOT fleet vehicle is allowed to access a charger in a non-public area, they must be able to be contacted and willing to immediately move their vehicle if an EV with that facility as home-base needs access to the EV charger.

MnDOT Use of EVs

Training

MnDOT developed a how-to video for driving and charging a Chevrolet Bolt EV that is applicable to other EVs in the MnDOT fleet. Every EV owner's manual also includes charging instructions.

• MnDOT Bolt video: http://ihub/co/bolt.html

EV Charger Resources

Maps of MnDOT-owned EV chargers will be available on the MnDOT Sustainability and Public Health Website and can be printed and placed in each MnDOT EV by fleet managers.

http://www.dot.state.mn.us/sustainability/docs/ev-charging-stations-map-feb-2020.pdf


The most current EV charging location and performance information for public chargers is online at Plugshare.com.

MnDOT Use of Non-MnDOT Public Chargers

MnDOT employees can use public chargers where available, including free and fee-based EV charging.

Free EV chargers For EV chargers that are free to use, no payment information is required.

Fee-based EV chargers There are proprietary payment systems for many public EV chargers (e.g., ZEF, ChargePoint, and Greenlots), especially for DC fast chargers (Level 3) located along higher traffic corridors. Use of DC fast chargers is significantly faster and more expensive than Level 2 charging. Some fee-based operators also operate public Level 2 chargers.

There are three primary ways to pay for EV charging:

1. Key fobs – proprietary systems often use key fobs that are scanned to pay for the EV charging session and charges are aggregated and billed monthly. Key fobs are recommended to be added to all BEVs (e.g., Chevy Bolts).

Central Office is currently investigating the procurement and payment systems for key fobs.

2. State fuel cards –MnDOT has applied for an exemption from Department of Administration to allow use of fuel cards at chargers that accept them. Not all EV chargers accept credit cards for on-site payment but all will accommodate credit card payment by phone.

3. Smart phone applications – individuals may have apps installed that allow payment via Bluetooth connection with the EV charger. Employees using this payment method must identify the charges on their personal credit card bill to get reimbursed.

Reimbursement for EV charging costs is approved by MnDOT when driving MnDOT fleet vehicles. When driving a personal EV, charging costs are included in the standard mileage reimbursement rate and not eligible for separate reimbursement.
