PEV Community Readiness U.S. Dept. of Energy Clean Cities Workshop: July 2010 “Plug-In Electric Vehicle and Infrastructure Community Readiness” • Included speakers and panelists from OEMs, policy makers, local governments, technology providers, academics, etc. • Collected lessons learned and real experiences from PEV efforts in communities • Summary of actions communities can take to prepare for wide-scale deployment of PEVs

  8. Consumer Experience Early PEV adoption • Drivers’ freedom may be limited • Confusion, complexity, uncertainty, and cost Successful preparedness ensures consumers have: • Convenience • Confidence • Clarity • Choice

  9. PEV Community Preparation DOE: Communities Take Action Now Issues to be addressed: • Planning • Permitting • Charging • Emergency Response Work in tandem with: • Utilities • Auto Dealers • Charging Manufacturers • Independent System Installers • State Agencies (public service commissions)

  10. Challenges & Barriers • Charging duration and intervals • Charging infrastructure • Permitting • Technician training • Emergency response • Ownership and repair costs

  11. Charging Needs: Location • Residential • Non-Residential • Commercial depot charging • Workplace charging • Public charging

  12. Charging Needs: Equipment • Consumers may need to wait for equipment and installation of equipment after vehicles are purchased • Intervals are lengthy • Level I (120 volt): 8-20 hours; standard three pronged household plug • Level II (240 volt): 3-8 hours; requires installation of special equipment • Permitting will be required for level II equipment installation • Confidence with installation requires trained professionals • Emergency response professionals will need training • Utilities will need to track and prepare for high volume areas • Cities may need to make revisions to regulations, codes, and standards

  13. Local Action To-Do List • Partnerships • Planning • Permitting • Incentives • Role of the Dealer/Automakers • Utility Preparation • Local/City Infrastructure Preparation

  14. Partnerships Designate a forum, entity or other mechanism to bring parties together: • Community preparation takes time • Many agencies and entities need to be involved in the process • Face to face meetings and reason for buy-in
