• Goal: Deployment of 20,000+ charging stations supporting 13,000 plug-in vehicles• Approximately 11,000 EVSEs and nearly 7,000 vehicles as of mid-June, 2012

Recovery Act – Largest charging infrastructure deployment in

history

• Detailed data analysis provides insight regarding real-world PEV usage, charge infrastructure utilization, and grid impacts

• 113,000 PHEV/EV miles and 4,430 charging events documented per day

Recovery Act – Data collection and analysis on thousands of vehicles and EVSEs

National Community Deployment Challenge• $1bn for 10-15 community alt vehicle programs• Builds on $8.5M in community readiness grants

announced by DOE in 2011 to accelerate installation of EV infrastructure

Advanced vehicle tax credit• Allow transfer credit to dealer or financier, allowing consumers to benefit at point-of-sale• Remove cap on number of vehicles per manufacturer & phase out credit at end of decade• Increase maximum amount from $7,500 to $10,000

The President’s FY13 Budget includes $650M to further vehicle and battery technology development at the Energy Department

President Obama announces Deployment Challenge

President Obama Announces New Initiatives

“Big Hairy Audacious Goal”:

Enable plug-in electric vehicles that are as affordable and convenient as today’s gas-powered vehicles by 2022.

President Obama announced the EV Everywhere Challenge on March 7, 2012
