CITY OF REDWOOD CITY, CALIFORNIA <br />Cost of Services (User Fee) Study <br />Matrix Consulting Group Page 37 <br /> The project team worked with City staff to identify the total operating costs <br />(maintenance, repair, electricity, replacement) associated with the charging stations, as <br />well as any departmental or citywide overhead. The following table breaks out the total <br />cost for the EV Charging Stations by direct cost, indirect cost, # of spaces, and the total <br />cost per space. <br />Category Amount <br />Direct Cost $118,439 <br />Indirect Cost (Departmental & Citywide) $12,910 <br />TOTAL COST $131,349 <br /> <br /># of Spaces 24 <br />Annual Cost per Space $5,473 <br /> <br /> As the table above shows the annual cost per space is approximately $5,500. In <br />order to obtain the cost per hour, the annual cost per space was divided by the annual <br />charging hours that are available. The following table takes the annual cost per space <br />and divides it by the annual hours available per space to arrive at the per hour rate for <br />the EV Charging Station. <br />Category Amount <br />Annual Cost Per Space $5,473 <br />Annual hours available 2,920 <br />Cost / Hour $1.87 <br /> <br />Based on the information in the table above the base cost per hour for the <br />Electric Vehicle Charging Station is $1.87 per hour. The following table compares the <br />current hourly rates to the full cost per unit. <br />Fee Name Current Fee Total Cost Per Unit Surplus / (Deficit) <br />Level II Charging Station $1.50 / hour $1.87 / hour $(0.37) / hour <br />DC Fast Charging Station $5.00 / hour $4.264 / hour $0.74 / hour <br /> <br /> As the table above shows, the City is currently under-recovering its costs as it <br />relates to the Level II Charging Station and slightly over-charging for the costs related to <br /> <br />4 The $4.26 / hour is based on taking the base hourly rate and multiplying it by the charging ratio between the two stations (500 V <br />divided by 220 V). <br />7.A. - Page 49
