Transit Staff Report – July 2022

Ongoing Projects: Electrification

We had our Partner Program kick off with Portland General Electric on July 15th to move our bus barn infrastructure toward an electric future. SAM applied and was accepted into PGE’s Fleet Partner Program which will work with Sandy help plan and build the appropriate charging infrastructure. Public Works staff member Ryan Wood also attended the meeting and Public Works will join Transit on the application for further savings at the City.

Here’s an example of how PGE custom cost incentives can help SAM build out our charging site.
