Replication Playbook

Success Stories & Best Practices from DEUSA1 Project

One of our primary charges from the DEUSA1 project was to create a “Replication Playbook” or set of success stories from each of our Priority Areas – or barrier-reduction – efforts. Across our 14 state-centric initiatives, each team created three stories, and then these were compiled by Priority Area (abbreviated as “PA” across the document), which resulted in between 5-7 stories in each PA category of addressing EV adoption barriers.

The introduction provides some project background, a description of what each initiative was tasked with doing over the three years in the project (the specific subtasks of work), and then short briefs on their work and what was learned. The full stories from each initiative include the gist of  the what/when/who/where/how/why, photos and graphics related to the work, and then both Outputs & Outcomes and Best Practices & Lessons Learned from the work. Access the entire Replication Playbook below, or delve directly into the subsets of stories from each Priority Area.

The purpose of the Replication Playbook is to allow other states, regions, or communities to learn from the efforts of all 14 of our states, and speed your success towards building relationships to hasten EV adoption in your area!
