Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV), collectively called Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEV), are entering the market place with long-time and new auto manufacturers offering their own version of electric car models in the U.S. By the end of 2013 up to 20 different models are expected in the market. Electric drive supporters and early adopters strongly suggest that making public charging infrastructure available and strategically accessible are critical to the growth of the Electric Vehicle (EV) market. But what is the correct level of PEV infrastructure? How does a community or business entity determine an appropriate infrastructure level based upon key factors such as type of vehicle (range limited or un-limited), commute distances, driving patterns, travel destinations, commercial charging systems and willingness of employers to provide workplace charging. "Wise Investments in Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure" will be defined by a regional planning process that can be adopted across the nation to enable regions and the entities in those regions to understand PEV market forces which will lead to an appropriate level of public infrastructure. The public infrastructure will coexist with commercial and workplace charging resulting in sufficient quantity of charging units to ensure a solid foundation for a transition to a viable PEV industry across the country.
