Past Projects
Los Angeles Police Department Electrical Vehicle Charging Stations, CA. Duration: 2016-2018
EvStructure installed 169 new Level 2 EVSE’s 48 new EVSE’s
infrastructure for current and future needs of LAPD fleet vehicles. The
team designed, installed and is currently on contract for maintenance
of all stations. The project was completed in three phases. Design,
engineer, permit, construct and maintain new service infrastructure
dedicated to EVC at 24 LAPD stations, Motor Transport, and
Division garage. Challenges exist when working in secure areas of an
active police station. These were mitigated with proper scheduling,
workspace boundaries and employee background checks.
City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation Electric Trash Collection Truck Feasibility Tests, CA
EvStructure installed four new EVSE infrastructure to enable the
Bureau of Sanitation to test the feasibility of electric trash collection
trucks. Our team designed, engineered, permitted, constructed, and
maintained new service infrastructure dedicated to EVCS at the North
Central Yard. There were challenges with construction and trenching
in an extremely busy service yard. This was mitigated with proper
scheduling and workspace boundaries.
City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation Electric Trash Collection Truck Feasibility Tests, CA
In 2015, the EvStructure team designed, engineered, permitted,
constructed, and maintained new service infrastructure dedicated to
EV Charging Stations at various cities in Southern California such as
Cities of Anaheim, Azusa, Burbank, Cerritos, Colton, Glendale, Moreno
Valley, Pasadena, and Riverside. We installed 20 new Level 2 EVSE
and 8 new EVSEs for the Southern California Public Power Authority.
Some of the challenges included handicap accessibility issues and
construction at popular venues. These were mitigated with assisting
the city planners in reviewing and implementing the new building
codes and proper scheduling, workspace boundaries.
Camping World, Utah
EvStructure designed and installed a 100K ground mounted solar
system to support a 150kW battery storage system to off-set demand
chargers for a 50kw DCFC. EvStructure currently maintains the
equipment for Camping World Retail location in Draper, Utah, which
includes preventative maintenance three times a year with 24/7
support.
Blink Network/Car Charging Group EV Charging Maintenance Service Contract, United States
EvStructure perform maintenance operation services on more than
140 Level II EVSEs and 80 EVSEs throughout cities in New York,
Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, North
Carolina, Delaware, and Hawaii. Typical work included replacing
existing outdated or out-of-service EVSE with new networked units
and verifying cell readings for all carriers such as Sprint, AT&T, and
Verizon. Right of entry agreement challenges existed throughout all
of the states but were mitigated with proper communication. Other
challenges included scheduling and mobilizing in different states.
OpConnect – Ulupono Initiative Grant: Better Place Program, Oahu, Maui, Kona Islands, Hawaii
The Better Place Program included replacing existing outdated and
out-of-service EVSE with 83 new Level II EVSE networked units in
public facilities throughout Oahu, Maui, and Kona Hawaiian Islands.
EvStructure assisted the EVSE manufacturer to maintain and operate
their EVSE and equipment. EvStructure completed the installation
in November 2015 and is currently providing ongoing maintenance
work.
EV Charging Infrastructure City Hall, City of Los Angeles General Services Depot. Motor Pool Division, CA.
EvStructure was hired to design and install 120 Level II EVC
Infrastructure at the Los Angeles City Hall parking structure both on
the employee and visitor parking decks. The project also included the
removal and replacement of their existing EV infrastructure with a more
modern and efficient network system. The underground parking decks
posed some challenges with cell signal reception, but through smart
design and engineering from the IT service team, the team was able to
achieve a steady stream of service and connection across all stations.
Our tea team was responsible for pulling all permits required for
installation and is currently providing ongoing maintenance services.
UTA Pentagraph Maintenance for ABB Manufacturer
EvStructure performs quarterly maintenance operation services on 3,000 volts high-powered Pentagraph electric bus chargers among other various preventative maintenance operations. Our contract with ABB began in 2019 and will serve for a total of 10 years.
EvStructure attends quarterly installation and maintenance training at the ABB headquarters in Richmond, Virginia to properly maintain and provide best practices and solutions.
Porsche North America Electrical Engineering
EvStructure team designed and engineered EV infrastructure for
the Electric Porsche Taycan program across 29 Porsche dealerships
nationwide.
Enterprise Rent-A-Car – Pilot Program, Oahu, Hawaii
LA Metro Solar Roof Installation at 2 MTA Bus Divisions, Los Angeles, CA
EvStructure designed, engineered and installed 213 kW solar photovoltaic systems on two MTA Bus Division for a total of about 425kW Solar PV output.
This project was part of a larger sustainability program, coined “Metro State of Good Repair” Bus Facilities Improvements. This program included multiple feasibility studies to assist in carry out the program’s initiative to reduce maintenance cost, energy consumption, and find creative ways to be sustainability and increase the life-cycle cost of its equipment and assets.
Rooftop Solar PV Installation, Los Angeles Mission Community College, Los Angeles, CA
EvStructure was contracted to install about 17,000 sq ft. of solar panels on a four-story parking structure roof top. The project required a thorough site visit, investigation, engineering assistance and compiling full reports of the system’s input and output.
This solar installation provides both parking shade and renewable electricity and covers about 17,000 sq. ft. of the parking structure’s top-level. The solar array produces an estimated 233,000 kWh per year - enough to power 150–200 average homes and about 8% of the college’s total usage. It is expected to save the college more than $75,000 per year
Feasibility Study, Design and Installation of Off-the-Grid System, PASHA Terminal, Port of Long Beach, CA
In 2012, energy program director was contracted by the Port of Long Beach to take the existing Pasha Terminal and create an energy system that would allow it to be fully operable off-the-grid, meaning 100% independent of external energy resources in the event of an extended electricity shortage due to natural or man-made energy outages. This project required a full feasibility study to determine critical loads, solar/renewable energy capacity, energy management and storage system, as well as complete design and installation.
The Pasha Terminal spans 40 acres, includes three (3) berths, three (3) 40-long-ton cranes, covered on-dock warehouses and nearly 235,000 sq. ft of transit shed yards. As part of this effort, Jake conducted an extensive energy audit and accurate inventory of the Terminal’s energy consumption, and then designing systems to produce and store enough energy to keep those functions operational off-the-grid. CUBED’s project manager, Jake, also served as the design engineer and project manager who successfully designed an off-the-grid system that now provides the terminal the ability to have full load operations for nearly 20 hours per day without external electrical support.
