Abstract
The city of Columbus has significantly invested in analyzing the future of sustainable mobility through the Smart City grant that the city received in 2016. This project served as the undergraduate capstone project for five students in the Environment, Economy, Development, and Sustainability major at The Ohio State University. This project examined the economic impact of the incorporation of 93 electric vehicles into Columbus's fleet, to help make recommendations on how the city ought to conduct future electric vehicle purchases. Work on this project occurred from February 2019 to April 2019 and was presented at the Environmental Professionals Network April 2019 meeting at The Ohio Union at The Ohio State University. The students collaborated with the city of Columbus, SMART Columbus, and faculty members in the College of Food, Agriculture, and Environmental Sciences at The Ohio State University.
