Plug-In Vehicles are Here, More are Coming • 2011 - 10 major auto manufacturers with 10 production models • 2012 - over 20 production models • Consensus - 3 Million Plug-in Cars by 2015 worldwide
Importance factors • Innovative pricing models or lower price overall • Extended reach or range of the vehicles • Convenience of usage or services • Availability of charging infrastructure • Significantly higher oil prices • Green image or sustainability concerns • Government incentives or regulations Source: IBM EVSE Survey 2011
Where will we charge? • The first generation of cars, coming in the next 3 years, take 4 hours to charge • Cars are parked somewhere 23 hours a day – that’s where we need charging stations • In homes, apartments, condominiums and hotel garages • In workplace parking lots • In public lots and curbside • In San Francisco there are 6 times as many cars as private garages
New Set of Needs • How many EV chargers are needed? • Industry: 2 chargers per/EV • What issues in each segment ? • Single family home with garage • Multi Dwelling Units • Workplace • Public • Who pays? • 10,000 stations = 30GWh/yr = $3M/yr • Avg. install cost @ $4100 Public, $1500 Residential • Electric grid integration? • EV load is 1-3 x average home • Utilities need to control peak load • Rate savings require Smart Grid Integration • Minimize operation costs? • Drivers expect high availability & reliability • Need driver assistance for minimal cost • Need fewer expensive “truck rolls”
Networking to address EVSE needs • Drivers • Station Location • Status Notification • Usage Cost • Hosts • Access Control • Accounting and Reporting • Specialty Applications • Utilities and Government • Seamless integration with existing systems • AMI, Demand Response • Payment Systems ChargePoint Network Vehicle Telematics Mobile Devices Management/ Control Driver Billing Utility Office, AMI

Policy Needs for a Successful Industry Enable workable revenue model for shared stations (apartments, condos, public, retail, workplace) • Drivers need to pay station owners for electricity, maintenance, capital, and real estate Enable incentive rates and integrated metering • Incentive pricing requires some type of submetering • We can include submetering in the charging stations at very low cost • Incentive pricing encourages people to use off-peak energy • This will ensure that the grid is used efficiently Smart Grid Integration • Charging stations with Demand Response, Time-of-Use Pricing, and AMI will be compatible with the modern electric grid Help with Local Planning • We need public charging locations • Streamline installation permitting and inspections
For 2011, EV Stimulus will Grow… • For 2011 President will Propose Budget to reach 1 Million Car Goal • Specific Proposals Include: • $500 million for DOE R&D for advanced manufacturing related to energy • Reauthorizing the 48C advanced energy manufacturing credit • Investments in vehicle R&D (ARPA-E) program and double investment in energy efficiency, including in industrial productivity, vehicle technology R&D for advanced batteries, and building technology R&D to cut energy consumption • Improvements to the electric vehicle tax incentive • $200 million “Race to the Top” competitive grant program to encourage communities to improve readiness to adopt electric vehicle technology
