Fleet staff said the city plans a network of Level 2 and DC fast charging to match vehicle missions, forecast about 267 fleet charging ports by end of 2026 and intends the Northeast Service Center to be the first true hub (planned 74 Level 2 ports and 12 DC fast chargers).

Deputy Director Rick Harland told the Joint Sustainability Committee that Austin’s fleet program has grown from 39 battery-electric vehicles in 2017 to a forecasted ~430 by the end of 2026, producing modeled life-to-date savings of about $3.1 million and cutting an estimated 46,500 metric tons of CO2.
