EPRI Workplace Charging Policy and Strategy

• Facilities are a mix of research

and practical use

– Our installations were relatively

expensive due to this (we

received no incentives)

• Mix of company and personally-

owned vehicles

• Employee and official guest

charging is free—due in part to

legal requirements

– Employees must charge at

home if available

– EPRI vehicles have priority

Planning and Implementing Infrastructure

• Understand workable models

• Public vs. private ownership

• Plan for scale of PEV adoption

• DC fast charging

• Need (some) infrastructure everywhere

• Voluntary pre-notification

• Satisfying consumer-driven

home installation process

• Permits, electricians,

inspections, meters, rates

• Smart charging easy and available

• Employer education and outreach

• Best practices

• Low cost installations


Dwell Times are Longest at Work, and Short at

Commercial Locations

Supporting Charging at low-level 2 will likely occur at the workplace.

Workplace Charging – EPRI ‘Red-Line Blue-Line’

Level 1 vs. Level 2: PHEV40 at the Workplace

Charging at a 1.44 kW results in higher charger utilization for BEVs…

Overall need is still low.

Level 1 – 1.44 kW Level 2 – 6.6 kW


Workplace Charging – EPRI ‘Red-Line Blue-Line’

Level 1 vs. Level 2: BEV100 at the Workplace

Charging at a 1.44 kW results in higher charger utilization for BEVs…

Overall need is still low.

Level 1 – 1.44 kW Level 2 – 6.6 kW


Workplace Charging Electricity Demand EPRI Palo Alto Campus at 100% Utilization

• Workplace charging peaks in early morning, done by noon.

• Company or fleet vehicles benefit from Level 2

• Employees need only very low power in most situations

• Facility cost driven by getting power out to the site

EPRI Workplace Charging Policy and Strategy

• Facilities are a mix of research

and practical use

– Our installations were relatively

expensive due to this (we

received no incentives)

• Mix of company and personally-

owned vehicles

• Employee and official guest

charging is free—due in part to

legal requirements

– Employees must charge at

home if available

– EPRI vehicles have priority

Some of Our Guiding Principles

• Level 1 works for almost

everyone (or charger sharing)

• Demand for charging spots is

growing rapidly—plan for the

future

• Collecting money is generally not

worth the effort

• Focus on inexpensive, robust,

and reliable equipment

• Employee charging demand

currently driven by desire—not

need

• The ‘honor’ system works for us


Closing Thoughts

• We believe the workplace charging helps drive adoption:

Can you reasonably expect a given installation of

workplace charging to be close to fully utilized within a

year?

• What is the future of workplace charging—when does it

change from employee and public benefit to a practical

resource that must be managed?

When do we transition from the EPRI ‘Blue Line’ to the

‘Red Line’?

Case Study #2

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WalQRscLU6g

Each employee offered a monthly $250 allowance to lease or buy any vehicle that qualifies them to get a California carpool lane sticker.

Faster commute = more work productivity

If they get the Nissan LEAF their allowance completely covers the cost of the lease.

Evernote negotiated a special deal with Nissan.

Discussion Existing and Emerging Policies

• What incentives exist for employers to install PEV charging infrastructure? • Rule 2202 – SCAQMD (example) • Examples from state incentives to share? • Tax benefits / credits • Resale of electricity • HOV lane exemption • Vehicle rebates • Utility rebates

• Find out what incentives are available where you live: • http://goelectricdrive.com/index.php/incentives

• Does your company offer any incentives to employees to adopt PEV’s? Financial incentives?

• Polices you aware of that support adoption of PEV for employees?
