RAVEN – Resilient Access Vehicle Electrification Network
Overview
RAVEN is a distributed infrastructure platform designed to support large-scale vehicle electrification while maintaining operational capability during grid disruptions. Each site integrates EV fast charging, on-site energy generation, and battery storage to function both as a commercial charging hub and a resilience node.
Core Components
DC Fast Charging Infrastructure
Solar PV Generation (site-dependent)
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)
Microgrid / islanding capability (where applicable)
Operational Model
Normal Operations
EV charging revenue
Grid services and energy arbitrage
Integration with local energy markets
Emergency / Resilience Mode
Continued EV charging during outages
Backup power support for critical local needs
Reduced dependency on centralized grid infrastructure
Strategic Objectives
Support California’s electrification goals
Enhance infrastructure resilience during extreme events
Enable scalable deployment across urban and underserved areas
Align with public funding programs and policy frameworks
