Plug-In Electric Vehicles (PEVs) are

Part of Solution to Many Problems

Climate Change… Smog… Grid Capacity (Especially

Renewables) Underutilization… Excessive Peak

Demand… Energy (Petroleum) Insecurity… Export of

Dollars for Oil… and More.

Regulatory policy is needed in

order for PEVs to be a solution.

PEVs Held Their Own

Easy to Operate, Quiet, Clean

But Limited Range

Gasoline ICE Cars Dominated

Market by Late 1910’s

PEVs Round 1:

Early 20th Century

PEVs Round 2—1990s, 2000s

ZEV Mandate in

California (1990, 1998)

Popular with Owners,

but Low Sales (Lease)

Volumes

GM Recalled & Crushed

All EV1 Cars in 2003

Meanwhile… Toyota,

Honda Brought HEVs to

Market in 2000s. GM Impact PEV Concept Car:

1990

GM’s EV1, Ford Ranger EV, Chrysler TEVan, Toyota RAV4 EV, Honda EV Plus, Nissan Altra

PEV Round 3: 2010 to 2016

Nissan Leaf

2011 First Model Year:

Pure Battery EV

1st Gen: 85-90 Miles Range

2nd Gen (2016): 107 Miles

Range

Sales Down Compared

with Volt in 2016

Chevy Volt

2011 First Model Year: “Extended Range EV”

1st Gen: 35-40 Miles All-Electric Range

2nd Gen (2016): 53 Miles All Electric

Sales Up, Down, Up Again in 2016

3,987 Through March

Tesla, Ford, BMW, Cadillac, Mitsubishi, Porshe, Volvo Sell PEVs Nationally.

PEVs Round 4: 2017 to ?

Chevy Bolt Tesla Model 3

Nearly every OEM plans to sell (multiple) PEV models nationally.

Ranges Up…. Prices Down.

• Introduction Dec 2016

• Pure Battery EV – 200 Mile

Range

• Cost $37,500 Before Fed Tax

Credit*

• Introduction Dec 2017

• Pure Battery EV – 215+ Mile

Range

• Cost $35,000 Before Fed Tax

Credit*

The Future Looks Bright for PEVs!

#1: Battery Costs Going Down Fast

#2: To Own a PEV is to Love It

Top 3 Cars in 2015

Consumer Satisfaction

Ratings are PEVs:

1. Tesla

2. Chevy Volt

3. Nissan Leaf

Volt: Highest

Satisfaction Rating of

Any GM in History

The “Tesla Effect”

Economic Benefits of PEVs

PEV Owners

Utilities/Rate-Payers

Ohio’s “Macro” Economy

PEVs are Great Deal for Owners…

and Can Be Even Better

Energy Cost Comparison:

PEV vs. ICE

ICE Energy Costs

Assume 25 mpg

Assume gasoline @

$2/gal

Energy Cost =

$.0.08/mile

PEV* Energy Costs

Assume 3.3 mpk

(miles/kWh)

Assume electricity

@ $0.12/kWh

Energy Cost =

$0.04/mile

PEV energy cost is roughly half of ICE vehicle. Not bad.

*2016 Nissan Leaf

Looking Behind the Numbers

One gallon of gas = 33.7 kWh (energy equivalency)

Thus… @ $0.12/kWh = $4.04/GGE

However… PEVs are about 4X more energy efficient

Example PEV (2016 Nissan Leaf) – EPA fuel economy rating of 114 MPGe

Estimates Don’t Include Lower Maintenance Costs for PEVs

What If We Paid True Cost of

Energy with TOU/TOC Rates?

ICE Energy Costs

Assume 25 mpg

Assume gasoline @

$2/gal

Energy Cost =

$.0.08/mile

PEV Energy Costs

(Off Peak Rate)

Assume 3.3 mpk

(miles/kWh)

Assume electricity

@ $0.04/kWh*

Energy Cost =

$0.015/mile

That’s less than 20% of the energy cost of ICE vehicle at $2/gal.

*Actual Off-Peak Rate From ConEd today is only 1.34 cents/kWh

Future (Med. Term) Value:

Connected PEVs as Part of Grid

Modernization …

Vehicle to Grid (V2G) or Grid

Integrated Vehicles (GIVs)

V2G/GIV Value and What is

Needed

Value is estimated at around $4,000 per year per car.*

Depends on energy market, hardware, software, battery

Needs:

Connections for Stationary EVs (Batteries)

Vehicle Hardware/Software

OEM Warranty Issues

Aggregators

Also Market for Batteries Out of Useful Vehicle Life

PJM Gets It! Reduced Minimum to 100kW (~20 PEVs)

Estimates vary, but $4,000 comes out of University of Delaware, which has

led R&D efforts.

PEVs Benefit Utilities and ALL Rate-Payers… Even Those Without a PEV

PEVs are an Important Part of Overall

Efficiency and Grid Modernization Effort

Capacity Utilization of the Grid

Net Revenue for Utils from PEVs

Overnight Charging Adds Revenue with No Appreciable Cost to Grid; Net Revenue is Produced

Macro-Economic Benefits

Gasoline:

Ohioans Weekly Gasoline Spend: $228 million*

Most of that wealth was exported from state.

Electricity:

Consumers would spend less than half on electricity

PEVs, perhaps 20% or less off-peak.

Most dollars spent on electricity stay within Ohio.

PEVs are potential $100 Billion national market for

utilities.**

*Derived from EIA figure for total U.S. figure based on

Ohio’s percentage of U.S. total population.

**Based on EIA data; assumes $0.10/kWh ave. rate

Climate Impacts of PEVs vs. Others:

Today, where you plug in matters.

Three Market Barriers to

Plug-In Electric Vehicles

Initial Purchase Price Lack of Charging Infrastructure Lack of Consumer Awareness

?

Barrier:

PEVs Still Cost More

to Purchase Initially.

Solutions:

Utilities: Use portion of PEV net revenue to

provide PEV purchase rebates.

State Government: Offer modest tax credit.

Federal Government: Extend fed tax credit.

PEV Incentives Examples

$750/vehicle incentive for

consumers (capped at 250)

$750/vehicle incentive for

dealers

Florida:

$500 - $1,000/vehicle

depending on battery

capacity

Loans for 60 months at

0.5% Interest on PEV

Problem: Consumers Not Paying

Market Rates Based on Time of

day

Problem:

Undifferentiated Electricity Rates Based on Time of Day

Consumers Pay More Than They Should

Charging Not Optimized to Utilize System Capacity

Solution:

Utilities Offer Time or Use (TOU) or Time of Charge (TOC) Rates

TOU/TOC Examples

Offers 3 Rates Including

“Super Off-Peak”

Whole-House Rates – No

Special Meter Needed

Indianapolis

Offers 3 Rates Including

Peak, Off-Peak, Mid-

Peak; Fleets and

Residential Eligible

Michigan

Offers 2 Rates: Peak,

Off-Peak

Separate Meter

Required

Barrier:

Inadequate

Infrastructure for

Charging and PEV

Connectivity

Solutions:

Utilities: Leverage PEV Net Revenue to

Incent Charging Installations

Local/State Gov’t: Provide Matching

Funding (e.g. CMAQ)

Where is Connectivity

Needed?

Certain Types of Residences

Workplaces

Corridors (Fast Charging)

Destinations (Retail, Medical,

Recreational, Other)

Infrastructure Incentives and

Installation Examples

California:

$45 Million to

Increase EVSE by

3,500 and fund

education

Michigan

16 Public Fast

Charging Stations

Northern Indiana:

EVSE Credit up to

$1,650; free off-peak

charging (separate

meter also free)

Texas: 50% rebate up

to $1,500 for EVSE

Barrier:

Consumers Poorly-

Informed About

PEVs…

Solutions:

Incentivize Dealers

Grassroots Education –

Driving Experiences and Interactions

Marketing Campaigns

Funded by Utilities Based on PEV Net

Revenue, and Gov’t

?

Consumer Education Examples

Education Campaign Examples

Illinois (Dept of

Pub Utilities):

$22M (fed/local)

for infra upgrades

to allow Smart

Charging

Florida:

Funding and

participating in

educational info

and outreach

Northern Indiana:

Partner w/ local Clean

Cities for funding and

info for home charging

Next Steps

Partner with Utilities (IOUs, Munis)

Work with PUCO on Policies to Allow

Investments:

Vehicle Up-Front Cost

Infrastructure

Consumer Education

Leverage Funding from Additional Sources
