PCC Research / The PCC Book of Parking / Part VIII
THE PCC BOOK OF PARKING · PART VIII · 11 MODULES · BUILT IN FULL · THE BOOK IS COMPLETE

What It Becomes

The forward part, drawn from the Chapter 7 working draft: the sustainable facility that wastes nothing, EV charging as a diligence discipline rather than a hardware purchase, the fire question answered with data, the automated systems, and the mandates and metrology deadlines the flexible asset absorbs without redesign. This is the part that proves the living-edition argument -- because everything in it will need updating, and the Book is built for exactly that.

Sources: Chapter 7, Sustainability & EV (working draft, PCC review) · Modules 66-68 (Smith, Schneeman, Monahan, Kim; LoCoco, Astrup)
Mechanisms on display: the EV load planner (Module 64, live), the sprinkler-decision canonical embedded under battery load (31 → 66), margin notes carrying cross-linked PCC Research papers, and glossary-linked terms marked .
