TOOLKITS
Electrification is driven forward through opportunity. Electrified transportation can create operational cost savings, improved performance, and broader benefits for employees, customers and our communities. The goal of the Electrify Arizona Toolkit is to provide an easy on-ramp to resources that help connect these opportunities to your current organizational realities and priorities, shortening the time your planning time and accelerating your electrification progress.
Building my Business Case
People are motivated to electrify for a variety of reasons. An effective business case brings these reasons together in context of the current organizational priorities, including market opportunities, existing asset performance, available technology options, financial expectations, and potential broader benefits that resonate with specific stakeholders. The business case should aspire towards objective representation of the opportunity, inviting input and critiques from colleagues across your organization. The business case will differ depending upon the specific use cases under consideration for electrification, but the general outlines of the business case are universal.
Take a deeper dive into the General Electrification Business Case.
Use Cases and Case Studies for Electrification
Transportation is a very broad category. We use the term 'use case' to break the category up into specific actionable scenarios that effectively accomplishes a business requirement. Some use cases are easier to make the business case for electrification, due to the current state of available vehicles, charging requirements, or financial ramifications. Each use case summary provides a description of the electrification opportunity, a general representation of the expected operational cost savings available, the performance improvement expectations, and a list of broader benefits that can help make your business case for electrification.
The Step-by-Step Plan for Electrification
We all like a plan, if for no other reason that it lets us compare our own thinking to someone else's, finding things that perhaps we've forgotten about, or seeing new approaches to accomplish something that we've already been thinking about. Plans also let us explain our thinking to others and reminds us of where we are on a project as we leave it and come back to it.
