Contents • Introduction to Plug-in vehicles • Market background • Building the business case
EVs are not that new • EVs around since mid-19th century • “La JamaisContente” broke the land speed record in 1899, first vehicle to go over 100km/h (62mph) • Peak popularity in 1912 • ICE vehicles rapidly took over The New York Times 13th Oct 1906
More recent vehicle technology evolving rapidly 2004 2010 2011 2012 2013
Still breaking records • New world electric land speed record • Set on the 25th June 2013 • 204.185 mph B12 69EV electric Le-Mans Prototype
What is a Plug-in Vehicle? • Describes a variety of technologies that use electric drive • Pure-EV or a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) • Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV) • Extended-Range Electric Vehicle (E-REV)
What is a Plug-in Vehicle? • Pure Electric Vehicle (BEV) • Battery and electric motor replace fuel tank and internal combustion engine (ICE). • Pure-EVs rely entirely on electricity for fuel
BEV Cars Peugeot iOn Nissan LEAF Renault Zoe Z.E.
BEV Cars Volkswagen e-UP Volkswagen Golf e-Motion Ford Focus
BEV Vans Renault Kangoo Z.E. Peugeot Partner Mercedes Vito E-Cell
What is a Plug-in Vehicle? • Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) • Combined battery and an electric motor with an internal combustion engine (ICE) • Both drive the wheels – the ICE used when the battery runs out or more power is required
PHEV Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid Audi A3 e-tron Toyota Prius Plug-in
What is a Plug-in Vehicle? • Extended Range Electric Vehicle (E-REV) • Combines battery and electric motor with ICE • Electric motor drives the wheels – ICE is a generator when battery is depleted
E-REV Vauxhall Ampera Chevrolet Volt BMW i3
PHEV • E-REV • BEV How big is the typical battery? 20 kWh 15 kWh 5 kWh
PHEV • E-REV • BEV How far will it go? 20 kWh 15 kWh 5 kWh 80 miles 30 miles 10-15 miles
Plugged-in Fleets initiative • PIFI • 25 fleets • Final report – ‘Charging Forward’ • PIFI 100 • 100 opportunities available 2013/14 • Bespoke profiles, NOT a single model
Identify the vehicle opportunity • Vehicle profiles / duty cycles that appear to work • Vehicles where there is an appropriate alternative PIFI 100 process flow • Understand the costs of all options • Carry out whole life cost analysis • Review the replacement cycles • Assess the recharging options • Understand the site requirements and costs • Review the additional charging options
Whole Life Costs Analysis • Costs • Outright purchase or lease costs (PiCG/PiVG) • Fuel • VED • Tax • Insurance • How can they be cost effective? • “Even with the grants, aren’t they still too expensive?” • Balance running costs V procurement costs
Whole life cost examples (PIFI) • Pool car comparison • Scenario will also replace grey fleet mileage @ £0.45 per mile
Whole life cost examples (PiFI) • Company car comparison
Whole life cost examples (PiFI) • Light van comparison • No congestion charge
Whole life cost examples (PIFI) • Light van comparison • No congestion charge • Annual fuel cost difference = £0.11 ppm • Potentially viable if extended to 5yrs / 50,000?
Some of the challenges for pure EVs? • Mileage profile • High daily mileage (80+ miles opportunity charging not available) • Low annual mileage • Financial benefits of low operating cost not realised • Vehicle specifications • Payload limits • Recharging limitations • Duty cycle too intensive - No ‘down time’ to charge • No opportunity to charge at home - On-street parking etc.
In summary • Identify the vehicle opportunity • All fleets are different • Focus on vehicle / driver not whole fleet • Understand the costs • Cost structure different to ICE • WLC specific to fleet essential • One size doesn’t fit all
