Cincinnati Electric Fleet
To achieve the decarbonization goals of the GCP, the City must reduce the emissions from its fleet. This involves analyzing the usage patterns of fleet vehicles and eliminating extra vehicles. In addition, the City must begin to electrify its fleet to reduce tailpipe emissions.
EV Charging in City Garages
In 2017, Cincinnati Council adopted a motion to have all publicly funded parking garages provide EV chargers at 1% of the spaces upon opening with the capacity to have 5% of all spaces become EVs in the future.
