U Cityoy Louisville City Manager's Office expansion. Staff are being consulted on the inclusion of solar at this location (currently), as well as other sustainable practices, such as using sustainable building materials and pursuing sustainable building certifications. Community Decarbonization Plan: • Electric vehicle adoption rate: o Atlas Public Policy Method - used in Louisville's Planning effort: • Pull EV's on the Road number from EValuateCO dashboard - This only includes BEV and PHEV, not traditional hybrids • Filter by zip code: City of Louisville estimated based on zip code 80027 (Not perfect since it includes Superior) • Filter by date: filtering on the "DMV Snapshot (Date)" field to get historic data (e.g., 2021 data is filtered on all dates before 1/1/2022; 2020 data is filtered on all dates before 1/1/2021; etc) • Yields 1,618 EV's on the road in 2023 for Louisville • In 2023 we estimated through Partners in Energy for the Louisville plan that to achieve carbon neutrality, 2023 EV's on the road need to exceed 1,376 - so Louisville is currently ahead of that target. • 1,618 EV's on the road / 17,306 Louisville vehicles registered = 9.35% adoption rate in 2023. o Boulder County registration data method - not used in Louisville's Planning effort: • For Louisville, gather total Electric + Electric/Gas vehicle registrations - the issue here is that the electric/gas category includes both PHEV and traditional hybrids (gas with regenerative braking) and overstates the adoption of EVs • Yields 1,987 EVs - including hybrids - registered in 2023 for Louisville (11.5% adoption rate in 2023) • Parco Dello Zingaro (PDZ) Engagement o Staff and Partner's in Energy (PIE) have created two door hanger to be shared with PDZ residents. Both door hangers are available in Spanish and English. Door hangers focus on energy efficiency and weatherization programming, as well and low -to- moderate income resources. The door hangers will hit doors next week. o Staff, PIE and Boulder County's Multi -family Unit Electrification Specialist have started the multi -family portion of community decarb implementation. Staff has asked PIE to conduct an analysis of Louisville's multi -family housing stock. This includes age of building, age of heating equipment, ownership, number of units etc. The goal of this analysis is to identify a 'top three' eligible MF properties in Louisville and encourage them to pursue decarbonization.
