  1. Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Context, Status and Guidance for Implementation Glenn Higgs | 17 June 2010

  2. Contents • Context and status • Good practice for implementation • What the future holds • Further information

  3. Context and Status

  4. Government commitment • 80% reduction in GHG by 2050 • Mayoral target – 60% CO2 reduction by 2025 • EVs nearest near-to-market low emission technology • Urgency for public charging network • Coalition programme: “We will mandate a national recharging network for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles” • Existing commitment - £250m

  5. London’s charging infrastructure • Current status: - 1700+ EV users (8000 in UK) - 200+ charging points across 15 boroughs - limited EVCP suppliers - most in car parks and use limited to borough/s • Mayoral targets for 2015: - 22,500 workplaces; 2,000 car parks; 500 on-street - also TLRN and new development • London’s suitability: - short trips (90% < 10 miles) - minimum off-street parking & dense development - strong incentives package • Pan-London network: - centrally administered, flat fee, < 1mile from EVCP

  6. Challenges • Ensuring demand exceeds supply • Future-proofing technology • Compatibility between vehicles and EVCPs • Minimising impact on parking and streetscape • Minimising peak demand on the grid • Ensuring mode shift from ICE

  7. Good practice for implementation

  8. Technology - overview quadricycle Integrated feeder pillar Blue Commando PodPoint

  9. Technology – types of charging • Installation costs: • electricity connection • TMO • signs and markings £3k-£4k £500 £500 • Operational costs: • electricity • supplier admin • maintenance £neg £3k pa £neg • Costs to user: • permit/joining fee • annual admin fee £50-£100 £17-£75 pa

  10. Range of locations on-street public off-street private • workplaces • residential • flats (inc Smart boxes) off-street public off-street private (not shared) • leisure centre • retail • community facility • station • park

  11. Design considerations - location On-street Charlotte Street, Camden End bay, busy street, near main road and close to shopping area and offices Considerations: • demand • visibility / access • road space • footway space • ‘Green Hubs’ * confirm through site audits Off-street Wandle St, Wandsworth End bay, close to entrance

  12. Design considerations – parking controls current DfT proposed EV only, maximum stay – with/without parking charge • display of permits required • parking whilst charging only • free parking or concessions common • standards and charges vary across London

  13. Design considerations – layout alternative locations for separate feeder pillar feeder pillar integrated into wide-based signpost 1m 4m EVCP parking sign* (alternatively fixed to existing/new signpost/lamp column or wall mounted) 0.45m 450 charging cable Electric vehicle EV 1.8m (min) ELECTRIC VEHICLES ONLY 5m (min) Considerations: • CP & feeder pillar • footway width • signs & markings • access • streetscape 0.35-0.70m

  14. Timescales and funding sources TfL LIP bulk procurement Govt ‘Plugged in Places’ £9.3m EVCP Funding EU funding (EVA) €23m Sponsorship EVA - Electric Vehicles for Advanced Cities

  15. What the future holds

  16. Technology • Electric vehicles • Charging points • Nissan Leaf (Leading, Environmentally • Friendly, Affordable, Family Car) • - £5,000 subsidy from 2011? • take up forecast: 5% or 100,000 vehicles • ‘as soon as possible’ charging types connectors • Intelligent charging points • Energy Technologies Institute ‘Joint Cities Plan’

  17. Future standards & requirements • Pan-London network - smart cards and networked EVCPs - flat fee and free electricity - future-proof for fast charging - London-wide brand - new website - call centre • New development

  18. Further information • Guidance for implementation of electric vehicle charging infrastructure http://boroughs.tfl.gov.uk/1054.aspx • EV Infrastructure Strategy www.london.gov.uk/electricvehicles/docs/ GLA_ELI_Strategy_09_V05.pdf • NewRide website www.newride.org.uk • EVCP Partnership Working Group Leon Thorne:leonthorne1@tfl.gov.uk Glenn Higgsghiggs@mvaconsultancy.com0207 529 6519
