华盛顿特区推出多户住宅电动车充电援助计划 大众和解基金出资100.05万美元
据新闻稿10月16日报道，华盛顿特区能源与环境部（DOEE）推出多户住宅电动车充电援助计划，帮助公寓等合租住宅居民获得充电便利，计划资金为100.05万美元，来自大众汽车排放和解基金。
特区市长鲍泽此前责成DOEE管理812.5万美元的大众和解减排资金，用于减少空气污染物与温室气体排放的项目，电动车充电基础设施是其中之一。计划支持的对象包括多户住宅楼四分之一英里范围内的场地主办方（如学校、信仰组织、图书馆、零售场所等），以及获授权安装路边充电设施的充电公司。
DOEE主任理查德·杰克逊表示：“通过把充电便利扩展到居民居住的地方，我们在特区清洁交通公平方面迈出了一大步。”他说，独户住宅居民长期以来可方便地在家充电，而多户住宅居民常面临结构、技术与资金障碍，该计划旨在让他们获得类似的便利。
District Launches Multifamily EV Charging Assistance Program Funded by Volkswagen Settlement
The District of Columbia's Department of Energy and Environment (DOEE) has launched a Multifamily Electric Vehicle Charging Assistance Program, according to a release on October 16. The program, funded with $1,000,500 from the Volkswagen Settlement Fund, is designed to expand charging access where residents of multifamily buildings live.
Mayor Muriel Bowser tasked DOEE with managing the District's $8.125 million in Volkswagen mitigation funds for projects that reduce criteria air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions, including EV charging infrastructure. Eligible participants include site hosts within a quarter-mile of a multifamily building, such as schools, faith-based organizations, libraries and retail locations, as well as EV charging companies authorized to install curbside charging.
'By expanding EV charging access where residents live, we are taking a major step toward clean transportation equity in the District,' said DOEE Director Richard Jackson, noting that multifamily households often face structural, technical and financial barriers to the home charging that single-family residents have long enjoyed.
