TOP 10 REASONS WHY MAUI IS THE PERFECT
SITE FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES
![Page 2: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
EVs pose mul=ple challenges to mass adop=on
• They are expensive • They require new infrastructure • They provoke “range anxiety” • They require consumers to change their fueling behavior
![Page 3: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Challenges for EVs (cont.)
• Poten=al owners are concerned that current technology will become obsolete quickly
• Most are sold in advance, so limited opportuni=es for test driving exist
• They create an unknown impact on old u=lity grids
![Page 4: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
But Maui could create a new paradigm for drivers: Here are 10 reasons why . . .
![Page 5: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
#10 Maui will benefit from early delivery of EVs
![Page 6: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
#9 Maui is geographically small (which helps with “range anxiety”)
48 miles wide
26 Miles across
![Page 7: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
#8 Maui hosts nearly 2 million visitors per year, (or, on average, over half of the people here are visitors) and . . .
![Page 8: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
85% of them choose rental cars for transporta=on.
![Page 9: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
That’s important in this plan, because EVs make sense for rental car companies:
![Page 10: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Rental car companies can purchase in large quan==es
• Fleets change over quickly (they don’t have to worry about geang stuck with obsolete technology)
![Page 11: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Rental car companies can capture value when they resell the cars
• Having EVs makes them more compe==ve in the rental market
![Page 12: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
EVs will also appeal to rental car customers because . . .
• They can try the cars without commiang to a major purchase
• The infrastructure is taken care of at their des=na=on
![Page 13: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• They can get an extended “test drive” experience
• The car becomes part of the vaca=on adventure
And • In some cases, refueling is covered by their hotels
(Which leads us to our next set of reasons . . . )

#7 A majority of visitors stay at hotels or condos
clustered along the south and west
coasts of the island (where they can recharge their EV cars overnight)
![Page 15: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
#6 Parking facili=es that are available for use by the general public and have at least 100 spaces are required to install an EV charger for every 100 spaces
![Page 16: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
#5 Golf courses, restaurants, and major tourist des=na=ons are installing
charging sta=ons
![Page 17: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
#4 Rental cars will encourage local adop=on
• EVs will become familiar (as hybrids did) • Infrastructure for visitor des=na=ons can also serve local drivers (malls, restaurants, etc.)
• Seeing EVs on the road will increase buyer interest
• Local drivers can rent EVs on a trial basis • Maintenance service will be available
![Page 18: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
#3 EVs will assist Maui’s isolated grid to integrate renewable energy:
• Wind and solar energy are readily available on Maui, but . . .
• The local power company limits variable energy sources to 15% because of its impact to an old grid
![Page 19: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Most EVs will charge at night, when loads on the u=lity are low
• EVs will help the local u=lity company use energy from wind farms (which is frequently highest at night)
![Page 20: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• During the day=me, EVs can draw on solar energy (and the technology is available)
![Page 21: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• And EVs also become a poten=al source of storage -‐ a cri=cal component for an isolated grid
![Page 22: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
#2 Because of having an isolated grid, Maui has been selected as a test
site for “Smart Grid” systems by several major companies,
including MECO, GE, and Hitachi
![Page 23: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
And the #1 Reason EVs make sense for Maui?
![Page 24: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Gas Prices are the highest in the na=on!
Price shown from May 2011
![Page 25: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Why are EVs important for Hawaiʻi?
• Hawaiʻi is the na=on’s most dependent state on foreign oil
• Hawaiʻi spent $7 billion impor=ng oil –money lost to reinves=ng in the local economy
• 60% of that is spent for transporta=on • Hawaiʻi has set a goal of genera=ng 40% of its energy locally by 2030
![Page 26: UH-Maui College Wins DOE Grant for Renewable Energy Charging of Rental Electric Vehicles](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051514/54bb55ca4a79597c0b8b46fb/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
University of Hawaii Maui College, in partnership with the State of Hawaii’s Department of Business, Economic
Development, has a plan for helping Maui become a na=onal leader in the mass adop=on of electric vehicles (EVs):
