I. Project Summary
The Bay Area Charge Ahead Project 1 (BayCAP1) is a multi-jurisdictional project led by the Bay Area
Climate Collaborative ("BACC)to procure and install Level 2 Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE)-
a.k.a., EV chargers-in specified locations throughout the greater Bay Area.The project is funded by the
California Energy Commission (CEC)via the PON-13-606 solicitation award approved on June 18, 2014.
Upon completion,the Bay Area Charge Ahead 2 project will install a total of 39 dual port Level 2
chargers,for a total of 78 Level 2 charge ports, including 4 charging stations(with a total of 8 charge
ports) located in the City of Cupertino.
II. Purpose of this Approval to Proceed
This document provides the approval for ABM to ship and install the CEC-funded Level 2 charging
stations at the approved addresses identified by the Site Host; and identifies for each of the relevant
parties(the Bay Area Climate Collaborative,the Site Host,ABM, and ChargePoint)the roles,
responsibilities,terms, and conditions for installation, maintenance, and operation of the charging
stations.
III. Partner Roles
1. The Bay Area Climate Collaborative(BACC)-a California nonprofit corporation, is the awardee of
California Energy Commission grant support. BACC will provide overall project management
services, including contract oversight,fiscal administration, and reporting to the CEC. BACC has
contracted with ABM for charging installation services.
2. Site Hosts: Site hosts for the EV charging stations in the BayCAP1 project include the cities of
Campbell, Palo Alto, Cupertino, Los Gatos, Menlo Park,Sunnyvale, and Mountain View as well as
San Mateo County, and Stanford University.

BayCAP1
3. ABM, a national leader in EV infrastructure and energy management services,will provide
installation,commissioning, and maintenance services for the project charging stations,and will
provide a portion of the required matching funds.
4. ChargePoint—a leading charging equipment manufacturer—will provide Level 2 networked
chargers and network operating services, including payment processing,cloud-based charge
station information services, and software upgrades.
5. The Site Host Entity will:
A. Complete required CEQA documentation specified by the California Energy Commission
(CEC).
B. Provide access to charge station locations in their jurisdiction designated in the PON-13-606
application (or a suitable alternative in the event that the original site is deemed infeasible to
install.)
C. Secure all necessary permits for the project
D. Collaboratively identify the most appropriate location for the chargers within the
designated site,taking into account convenience for both the EV driver and other users of the
facility,visibility, accessibility, and installation cost. (Please note that site cost guidelines are
highlighted below in the Siting Requirements and Scope of Work sections.) In the event that a
location preferred by the Site Host cannot be installed by ABM within the project budget, a
new site will be selected which is responsive to the Siting Guidelines indicated below.The Bay
Area Climate Collaborative will assist the parties in coming to consensus on final siting as
needed.
E. Provide charging station signage(per the requirements defined below)and striping(where
needed to clearly designate the space for EV use).A minimum of one sign per EVSE-equipped
parking space is required by the California Energy Commission and SACC,which shall indicate
that the space is"reserved for EV charging." The relevant signage must comply with the
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices(MUTCD) and California Vehicle Codes(CVC),
ensuring that signs are high enough, easily visible, and provide clear and accurate information
on parking and charging policies.
F. Provide adequate electrical capacity and any other items deemed necessary to complete the
EVSE installation that are otherwise excluded from the standard ABM installation services as
specified in the Siting Requirements and Scope of Work sections of this Agreement.Any such
items or services, if needed,will be further specified in this agreement(following the joint site
inspection by ABM and the Site Host).Additional items(if any)to be provided for by the Site
Host shall be summarized in Exhibit C. Items (if any)that are contracted for with ABM for an
additional fee are summarized in the form of a work order in Exhibit B, subject to the terms
listed in Exhibit B.
G. Oversee installation with ABM, and assign an administrative contact authorized to set up the
ChargePoint online station management account before the stations are activated.
H. Contract with ChargePoint to provide charge station network operating services during the
2014-2016 project performance period—as defined in the attached Master Software Services
Agreement("MSSA") and in fulfillment of CEC local match requirements affirmed in the Site
Host Letter of Participation included as part of the CEC PON-13-606 grant submittal.The
ChargePoint MSSA needs to be "accepted" online as part of the EV station activation process
after payment is made.As a reference, a copy of the ChargePoint MSSA is attached as Exhibit
E of this document.
Bay Area Charge Ahead Project 1-Approval to Proceed 1 July 30,2014 I page 2
BayCAP1
I. Maintain public accessibility for all chargers on a 24/7 basis, subject to encroachment
permits or Site Host's need to repair or maintain the streets.
J. Maintain stations in good operating condition during the 2014-2016 project operating
period.
K. Provide adequate insurance per CEC requirements.
L. Operate the chargers in compliance with a Site Host Pricing Policy that meets grant
requirements defined in the Bay Area Climate Collaborative response to PON-13-606 and
summarized herein.
IV.Siting Requirements
ABM will install Level 2 ChargePoint charging stations at the designated sites identified through
collaboration between the Site Host and ABM. In the event that these sites are deemed by ABM to
be cost-prohibitive,or pose other obstacles to effective installation, maintenance, or operation, a
new site will be identified that meets the selection criteria identified by the CEC and by the Bay Area
Climate Collaborative (BACC), and which is mutually satisfactory to the Site Host, CEC, BACC, and
ABM.Alternatively,the Site Host may choose to perform or contract additional services as outlined
below in Section V/Additional Services:
■ Location: Select a high-demand, high-visibility location that conforms to CEC criteria for safety,
ease of access/ingress, shelter, lighting, and ADA access.
■ Electricity:Select a location where AC Level 2 (240V/40A)electrical supply is or can be made
available with relative ease and minimal cost. (Note that the average cost of installation is
projected at a market value of approximately$4500 per site,which will limit panel upgrades and
conduit runs.) More cost details are available in the ABM Scope of Work(Section V below). If
the cost to complete the installation exceeds the costs identified in Section V below,the Site
Host is responsible for the additional expense exceeding the amount identified in Section V.
■ Equipment Protection: EV chargers should be placed where they can be best protected from
physical damage by such measures as curbs,wheel stops, setbacks, bumper guards, and
concrete-filled steel bollards, while simultaneously taking into consideration ease of access to
the charger, mobility of users, and foot traffic in the area.
■ Public Safety:Chargers should be located in areas with proper ventilation and away from
potential hazards including traffic,explosive materials,flammable vapors, liquids and gases,
combustible dust or fibers, materials that ignite spontaneously on contact with air,flood-prone
areas, and areas that might be prone to vandalism.
■ Duration of Use: AC Level 2 charger sites should focus on locations where PEV owners will be
parked for significant,though shorter, periods of time(e.g.,one to six hours).
■ Shelter: When possible, choose locations with nearby shelter to protect users from weather
when connecting their vehicle to the charger. (However, chargers are designed to be safely
operated in exposed locations in the rain,with no danger of electrical shock.)
■ Accessibility:To the extent feasible, EV charger locations within a site will be accessible in
accordance with the draft Governor's Office of Planning& Research guidelines on ADA access.
■ Security: Locations should be selected that are secure for users at all times of day and night and
relatively secure from vandalism (e.g., in well-lighted,well-traveled areas.)
■ Cell Coverage:Chargers require cell phone signals for networked operation and repeaters may
be installed to provide signals if the site does not have coverage.
Bay Area Charge Ahead Project 1-Approval to Proceed I July 30,2014 1 page 3
BayCAP1
If no qualifying site is identified within the Site Host jurisdiction that satisfies the requirements of all
parties, then the Bay Area Climate Collaborative, with the concurrence of the California Energy
Commission, may propose a new site in another jurisdiction.

VI.ABM Warranty, Installation Services,and Limitations
■ Warranty: ABM labor and construction material are under warranty for one year after
installation; all new work is done to local NEC code requirements.ABM is not responsible for the
condition or capacity of the existing electrical systems. ABM is not responsible for any
vandalism that occurs during or after the installation of materials.The cost of City permits and
electrical engineering and engineered drawings (if applicable) are not included as part of the
CEC-funded installation, although regular construction drawings are included.The CEC prohibits
use of its funds for permitting. Local site hosts must cover permit costs.
• Signal Boosting Equipment:At times,signal boosting antennae may be required for the wireless
features of ChargePoint EV charging stations to function properly. Due to the nature of wireless
signals, possible interference, line of sight obstructions, etc.,one or more antennae could be
needed. During the original site visit,ABM will make efforts to determine the need for signal
boosting equipment, and will provide such equipment to the extent feasible within the overall
project cost framework. However, it is possible that supplementary signal boosting equipment
may be needed in the future. If the need should arise,or if the cost exceeds what is feasible
within the CEC grant cost parameters, a proposal can be provided for signal boosting
equipment.
■ ADA and Accessibility Requirements:All ADA requirements determined by municipal or state
agencies are the responsibility of the Site Host.ABM is responsible for the installation of the
electrical system(s) necessary to the specific scope outlined for the EV chargers specified. It does
not include surface modifications,striping removal, re-striping, etc.that may be necessary to
comply with ADA or Accessibility Requirements.Also, any material changes to the electrical
scope caused by ADA or Accessibility requirements are considered as additional to ABM services

provided through CEC funding.The guidelines to be followed are the draft"Plug-In Electric
Vehicles: Universal Charging Access Guidelines and Best Practices" published by the State of
California,Governor's Office of Planning and Research, at:
http://opr.ca.gov/docs/PEV Access Guidelines.pdf. In the event that the state issues new
guidelines prior to installation,the new guidelines will be used to define ADA requirements.
■ Wheel Stops and Bollards: Reasonable measures will be taken to install stations in a safe
location set back to avoid contact from vehicles.As noted above, protective bollards and wheel
stops are not included in the standard ABM work scope. If additional protection is desired or
required by the City, bollards or wheel stops can be procured and installed with the city's own
resources or a proposal can be provided by ABM.

limitation, the payment of prevailing wages, maintenance of certified payroll records, and work
hours as set forth in Labor Code Section 1770,et.seq..
VIII.ABM Preventive Maintenance Program and Funding
The California Energy Commission requires that applications for funding under PON-13-606 "must
include a maintenance plan for continued reliable operation and unforeseen breakdowns of the electric
vehicle supply equipment." (Application Guidelines, p. 9)To fulfill this requirement,the Bay Area
Climate Collaborative has negotiated a maintenance plan with ABM to cover Site Host charging stations
_for a two-year period following their installation. (Note that the formal term of the CEC project is
anticipated to be from the date of execution of the CEC contract with the Bay Area Climate Collaborative
through June 30,2016.)To cover Year 1 of the project period,ABM will donate (as local match)the
entire value of the maintenance plan based on its Manufacturers'Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), which
is$200 per charge port for the year. In Year 2,ABM will discount the Plan by 50%, providing$100 per
charge port as match,while CEC funds will provide the balance of$100 per port to ensure continuity of
maintenance across all charging stations in the Project.The following chart outlines the funding
commitments of ABM and the CEC:,

Year $200 $200 $0 $0 100%
Year 2 $200 $100 $0 $100 100%
ABM Maintenance Scope of Work
■ Software Monitoring:ABM will monitor on a daily basis the ChargePoint network software to
detect failure modes and promptly address the problem, either through software adjustments
or dispatch of a technician to the site, if authorized by the site host.
■ Software Upgrades: ABM will work with ChargePoint to ensure rapid and seamless deployment
of software upgrades.
■ Monitoring and re-programming of pricing: ABM will assist Site Hosts in monitoring (and re-
programming as necessary)their pricing approach to EV parking and charging services.
Bay Area Charge Ahead Project 1-Approval to Proceed I July 30,2014 1 page 8
BayCAP1
■ Monitor and report key EVSE data: ABM will monitor and report key EVSE utilization data,
including charge session frequency, length, energy utilization, and payment history.
■ Quarterly On-site Maintenance Scope of Work: An ABM technician will visit Site Host locations
in person on a quarterly basis to undertake the following maintenance activities:
o Maintain equipment finishes: ABM will clean the display, head and pedestal/base unit
with ABM Green Care cleanser and microfiber cloth; inspect and clean cord and J-1772
receptacle, apply cable protective Green Care coating, and clean aluminum and plastic
parts with microfiber cloths and Green Care cleansers. (Note that ABM Green Care
products are LEED certified for green maintenance processes.)
o Activate "ChargePoint" session and perform visual inspection of electrical components
and initiate the charging station self-test processes. Minor repairs and recalibration can
often be done on site while technician is performing service to eliminate return trips
and minimize down time of the equipment.
■ ChargePoint warranty repair work: Charging station warranty related repair work will be
processed through ChargePoint if such repairs are the responsibility of the manufacturer.
■ Non-Warranty work—option of pre-authorized work: All non-warranty work such as vandalism
repair or damage to EVSE equipment shall be estimated prior to repairs.At the option of the Site
Host,this work could be immediately addressed under a "Not To Exceed"threshold of$750.00
(or other amount) pre-approved by the site host. If authorized,ABM will perform work on a time
and materials basis.Any agreement for pre-authorized repairs(if so desired)will be executed by
ABM and the Site Host independently of this Authorization to Proceed.
IX. Network Services Fees
The ChargePoint network services fee is$230 per year per port, and covers software upgrades,station
programming, cellular connections,and 24/7 driver support.THE TWO-YEAR NETWORK SERVICES FEE
MUST BE PAID IN FULL PRIOR TO THE COMMISSIONING OF CHARGING STATIONS.ABM will invoice the
Site Host on behalf of ChargePoint, and shall provide proof of Site Host payment within 30 days to the
Bay Area Climate Collaborative in fulfillment of CEC project reporting requirements.
X. ChargePoint One Year Warranty and Optional Extended Warranty
The first year ChargePoint warranty is included free with all charging stations included in the Project.An
optional extended warranty covers one or two additional years(parts only)for$660 per Charging
Station per year. ChargePoint equipment warranty details are provided in Exhibit D of this document. If
a Site Host wishes to extend the ChargePoint warranty, it must be specified at the time of equipment
order and paid within 30 days.
XI.Site Host Pricing Policy Requirements
The California Energy Commission requires Site Hosts to implement a plan to optimize the use of the
charging site to allow multiple EVs to use the charging equipment during a typical day,and to prohibit
utilization of a charging station "beyond a reasonable period of time." In alignment with this goal,the
Site Host shall implement the Pricing Plan identified in their Letter of Participation included in response
to the CEC solicitation PON-13-606.The standard (default) Plan developed for all BayCAP1 project
Bay Area Charge Ahead Project 1-Approval to Proceed I July 30,2014 1 page 9
BayCAP1
participants calls for the following elements to be administered by the Site Host. (Note that variations
from this Plan may be acceptable, but must be approved by the Bay Area Climate Collaborative and
included as part of this Notice to Proceed.)
A. Fee-Based Charging:Site hosts shall set charging rates between$1.00 and$1.50 per hour for
use of the charger.This may or may not include separate charges for parking per the
jurisdiction's usual parking policies. Fees may be calculated based on duration of stay, energy
consumed (kWh),or a combination of the two.
B. Graduated Pricing Based on Duration of Stay: Site hosts shall raise the fee for occupying the
EVSE-equipped space by a sufficient increment to encourage turnover of the space and thus
greater availability and utilization (in charging mode)for EV drivers. It is recommended that this
approach be implemented after approximately four hours of charging at the lower cost rate—
particularly in cases where utilization rates are observed to be very high (70%or more) and
available alternative charging facilities are limited.Site hosts may also consider a lower evening
or weekend rate for EVs(similar to most existing parking policies)to encourage responsible off-
peak use. (In particular, lots proximate to multi-unit residential buildings could provide a lower-
cost overnight rate with a higher daytime rate that incentivizes overnight EVSE users to make
way for daytime visitors and commuters.)
C. EVSE Revenue and Cost Monitoring: Pricing strategies should be reviewed on a semi-annual
basis to ensure that expenses for sustaining charger operations are covered to the maximum
extent feasible and appropriate. In most cases,fees for charger operations set in the$1/hr.
range (or equivalent kWh)should be adequate to cover energy costs,transaction fees(in the
ChargePoint MSSA),the ChargePoint network services fee,and (beginning with Year 3 of the
Project)the (optional) continuation of the ABM Maintenance Plan. In rare cases where the
charger is not yet being well-utilized,there may be a modest operating subsidy required.
XII. Disposition of Equipment: Charging stations and related equipment installed by ABM at Host Sites
are considered to be the property of the Site Host upon delivery at the Site. Per CEC Terms and
Conditions,the Site Host shall use the equipment in the project for which it was acquired as long as
needed, and the Site Host shall not encumber the station without CEC approval.When no longer needed
for the original project or program,the Site Host shall contact the California Energy Commission for
disposition instructions.
