Overnight Demand Control - smart metering
16
Key Infrastructure Requirements
Home• Single phase only – 13 or 32 Amp• Smart Meter potential for flexible rate and
demand control
Work/Depot/Factory• Office Car parks and transport hubs• 3 phase supplies for larger vehicles –
busses, lorries• “Smart” to enable energy billing
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out• Access arrangements• Standardisation• Payment methods• Ownership models
17
Key Infrastructure Requirements
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out
How many posts are needed?
Who pays the initial costs?
Where best to locate them
Normal charging @ 3kw (13amp), or fast charging @ 7kw (32amp)?
Public safety and insurance.
18
Key Infrastructure Requirements
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out• Access arrangements
Free parking to encourage electric vehicles?
Free electricity? – Long term how does government replace fuel
duties?
Dedicated spaces – may annoy users of petrol cars
Any other incentives – such as no Congestion Charge in London

Key Infrastructure Requirements
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out• Access arrangements• Standardisation
Plug and socket arrangements for fast charging

Key Infrastructure Requirements
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out• Access arrangements• Standardisation• Payment methods
Free electricity included in parking fee or charge each time?
Local or National Schemes
Prepayment card, Credit card
21
Key Infrastructure Requirements
Public• Public points starting to be rolled out• Access arrangements• Standardisation• Payment methods• Ownership models - Interoperability
National government or Local government
Utility companies, Transport Hubs
Parking companies, Supermarkets
Independent franchises

Key Infrastructure Requirements
Charging points have the same public demands as public loos:
You would rather not use them, but its good to know they are there.
They need to be in the places that people need them
There has to be just enough - too many is a waste of resources, but not enough is a problem.
If they are closed or not working they are even worse than useless.
Someone has to take ownership and accept the costs even if they are not used – some will be free others will not.
We will accept reasonable costs for their use assuming you have the correct method to access them…….
