Electric Vehicles are appearing in all markets

Harley is developing electric motorcycles

Rapid charging enables 20 MPGe transit buses

Scheduled charges occur during “time checks” – 5-10 minutes each hour. Nearly silent operation – quieter than CNG, much quieter than diesel 150 kW electric motor + 3 speed transmission. Perfect for in-town routes. 500 kW rapid-charger, typically placed at one or two key locations

Smaller battery + Frequent charges = Low lifecycle cost

Up to 40% lower maintenance cost vs. diesel

(fewer moving parts)

Up to 90% lower fuel cost vs. diesel (over vehicle lifetime)

Elecrtricity = lower fuel price volatility

EVSE = Electric Vehicle Service Equipment Goal is to deliver electricity safely

On/Off Relay Switch: Sends AC power to car only after communications are successful

Control Board: Communicates with

car, checks for ground faults, interfaces with optional billing

systems, credit card readers etc.

Current-Sensing: Devices to measure energy delivered to

the vehicle

Wiring Terminals: External electrical connections for

240V, 40A typical

What’s inside an EVSE? Here’s one system.

Industry-standard plug for all electric vehicles and plug-in-hybrids

•  SAE J1772 – Society of Automotive Engineers standardized the electric plugs for safety and durability.

•  Plug is on 120 V convenience cords, included with most

electric vehicles and plug-in-hybrids. •  Plug can deliver 240 V power from a “charger” known

as Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE). •  If someone unplugs a car during charging, the safety

connection separates first and triggers the EVSE system to interrupt the electricity flow to prevent arcing.

Understanding EV Charging: Level 1, Level 2, & DC Fast Charging

LEVEL 1: "At Home!

5 miles per hour!1400 Watts !120V, 12A!(20A circuit breaker)!

25 miles per hour !6,600 Watts* !240V, 30A**!(40A circuit breaker)!

LEVEL 2: "At Home, or!Public Locations!

DC !Fast Charge: "Not critical for EVs.!PHEV’s don’t need it.!Only for long EV trips.!Various plug standards.!

*Some PHEVs charge at 3,300 Watts. **Plug standard accommodates up to 70A !

130 to 340 miles* !per hour of charge!44,000 to 120,000 Watts !

*Most vehicles are 80% full in about 30 minutes. !

SAE Combo, CHAdeMO, Tesla!

80% of EV charging occurs at home Level 1 and Level 2 charging at home or fleet base

•  Level 2 charging refills a car at about 25 miles for each hour plugged in.

•  Level 2 EVSE can greatly increase the daily electric range of an EV or PHEV.

•  Home EVSE hardware starts at $560, plus installation of a “dryer plug” circuit.

•  Commercial EVSE hardware costs $1,000 to $7,000 plus varying installation costs.

There are 53 EV charging plugs in operation at 21 locations in Western Colorado, Approximately 16 plugs at 10 additional western slope locations are planned for 2014.

EV Infrastructure is Growing Quickly

Western Slope EV Charging Locations

Western Colorado EVSE locations now open also include: Montrose, Ouray, Telluride Mountain Village, Steamboat Springs. Search for alternative fuel stations in the U.S. online at: http://www.afdc.energy.gov/locator/stations/ (1 month delay posting new stations) For additional “crowd-sourced” detail on EVSE locations, visit http://plugshare.com Map above updated as of August 14, 2014

Nationwide EV Infrastructure is Growing Fast

Monthly electrical costs to drive a plug-in vehicle are low

The electric cost to drive a plug-in vehicle is about $26 per month •  The “fuel” cost when driving electric is about 3.1 cents per mile

•  Assumes the average plug-in vehicle driver travels 10,000 miles per year on electricity •  Assumes the vehicle can travel 3.5 miles per kWh, that equals 2,857 kWh per year •  Assumes the customer pays $0.11 per kWh, that equals $314.28 per year, or $26.19

Dedicated 120 V GFCI plug outlet Is recommended

Preparing for 120V charging is easy

•  Level 1 charging refills a car at about 5 miles for each hour plugged in. •  If possible, install a 15 amp single-outlet plug on a dedicated circuit to charge

plug-in vehicles. (Your EV should not share a circuit with your beer fridge and garage door opener.)

•  Can you guess what happens if a second plug-in vehicle uses the plug in this parking garage??

Good management is critical to ensure vehicle charging costs are low at commercial buildings

Fleet has 4 EVs, each drives 1,000 mi/month, has 4 Level 2 chargers (6.6kW each) •  Option 1. Charge any time. This causes a new peak, 27kW higher than usual. $0.11/mi •  Option 2. Fleet sets EVs to automatically charge at night. $0.01/mile

Common Misconceptions

Do EVs really emit less CO2? Yes! 45% of Americans live in the “best” areas for EVs…

…and the grid is getting cleaner every day!

Since this data was sourced, Colorado alone added 3,000 megawatts of wind.

Source: Union of Concerned Scientists, State of Charge Report 2012. UCS Regional global warming emissions ratings are based on 2009 power plant data in the EPA’s eGRID 2012 database (the most recent available version).

What about power plant pollution? EVs win. Even on Colorado’s coal-heavy grid, EVs are cleaner

…and the grid is getting cleaner every day!

Source: Lessons Learned from the Clean Cities Community EV Readiness Projects, March 2014, prepared by C2ES.org

Grid readiness for plug-in vehicles Nighttime charging ensures EVs don't cause new grid peaks.

California can charge 5 million plug-in hybrids at night with minimal impact. Most EV's have built-in features to set the preferred charge time.

Do EVs increase coal use? No. The majority of new electricity generation in U.S. is low-carbon.

Powerful market forces are driving generation changes, not EVs.

What about environmental impacts, such as ...

…battery recycling? A great system is in place: Car batteries are the most-recycled product in the U.S. •  98% of existing lead-acid car batteries are recycled. •  0% of gasoline is recycled. •  Only 27% of plastic bottles and 58% of aluminum cans are recycled. •  Toyota offers a $200 bounty on junkyard hybrid batteries.

…the embodied energy of making an EV or PHEV? Takes a bit more energy to make, yields huge energy savings over its lifetime.

EV’s on the grid are fine, but what about solar?Renewables: Buy solar now, fuel is free for decades

Driving a gasoline vehicle: •  10,000 miles per year •  at 30 miles per gallon •  is 333 gallons per year •  = $1,000 per year To buy 50 years of fuel today: 500,000 miles of fuel = $50,000 assuming $3/gallon (you'd need a big tank!)

Driving an electric vehicle: •  10,000 miles per year •  at 3 miles per kWh •  is 3,333 kWh per year Equal to 2 kW of solar PV panels Some Community Solar Gardens offer a 50 year warranty on power Cost: $7,000, then free electricity 50 years of EV charging: $7,000 one-time purchase! Powers 500,000 miles of driving

Are EVs safe? Yes! Just like any new car, crash ratings matter to buyers.

FMVSS regulations include alt-fuel requirements.

Will the battery last?

8 years, 100,000 miles Designed for 10+ years and 150,000+ miles It is possible to replace individual cells without replacing the entire battery pack.

Vehicle Warranty

8 years, 100,000 miles Designed to have 80% of capacity at 10 yrs It is possible to replace individual cells without replacing the entire battery pack.

Nissan Leaf

Most Gasoline Engines

Chevy Volt

5 years, 60,000 miles Warranty varies by manufacturer 5 years, 100,000 is the best available

Don’t PHEV and EV batteries cost $1,000’s to replace?

Warranty will cover you for years Currently, all battery manufacturers offer an 8 year 100,000 mile warranty

Concern Response

What if my battery fails?

Battery failure is not very likely Many EV batteries are designed for 10 years, 150,000+ miles. Hybrid Escapes batteries are lasting 300,000 miles, and 1998 RAV4 EVs are still running

But what about after the warranty?

Battery repair is cheaper than you think: Often a single module fails, not the entire pack. Module replacement is $100’s not $1,000’s. Battery packs are getting cheaper all the time. In 8 years, batteries will hold more energy and cost much less than today.

What if my battery fails after warranty is out?

Can EVs go in the snow? Many EVs front-wheel drive = great snow handling

Like any car, buy snow tires!

Program your car or use a mobile app to trigger automatic heating or cooling. Warm up the car before you even get out of bed!

Ford Focus EV & Chevy Volt batteries have liquid heating/cooling for extreme climates.
