The EV World and Electrifying Buildings There are more electric vehicles every day, and there is a corresponding need for them to be part of building and site parking designs. Every vehicle charger takes up a large space on the electrical panels, so the service size and physical space needed to accommodate electrical vehicle chargers are rapidly increasing. Fleet vehicles changing to EVs have a huge impact on the electrical systems, driving ever higher demands. Trends to electrify buildings’ HVAC systems, use of more ground source, heat pumps, and/or Variable Refrigerant Flow mechanical systems drives more distributed electrical branch circuits, which increase the number of panelboards. The addition of Battery Electric Storage Systems (BESS) to control demand and save renewable power onsite is also ramping up. These trends mean a bit larger electrical rooms than historically we have been used to. If these are part of the program, consider increasing the space allocated and increasing the electrical budgets. DC Fast Charger - Designed at the State of Utah MASOB Building, 1900 W North Temple
