The National Science Foundation Division of Electrical, Communications and Cyber Systems awarded a $149,999 Project Grant to the University of Houston System to support the "PILOT FOR EQUITABLE ELECTRIC MOBILITY: SMART CHARGING, SMART PARKING, AND METRO PASS SYSTEM" project. Funded under the NSF Engineering (47.041) program, which seeks to improve quality of life and economic strength through engineering research and education, this project will develop and pilot test technologies and policies to enable more equitable electric vehicle adoption. The University of Houston will manage the overall project and collaborate with the Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (Metro), which received a sub-award. Metro staff will contribute to community outreach and engagement efforts and participate on the project steering committee and technology working group. The goal is to pilot smart charging, smart parking, and an integrated metro pass system to help more residents access the benefits of electric transportation options. Outcomes will inform policies to expand equitable mobility networks in the Houston region.
