Key Contributing Factors to PEV Forecast •
Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) include both battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles.
•
There are a number of factors that are included in Pike Research’s forecast model that vary between national and state level forecasts depending on the data available:
National forecasts include: •
Government policies, including federal purchase incentives and anticipated fuel economy rules
•
Product rollout plans and availability
•
Ownership and interest in hybrid vehicles
•
Economic growth
•
Average gasoline costs
State forecasts include: •
State population and vehicle ownership
•
State demographics compared to hybrid owner demographics
•
State government policies, including incentives
•
Number of electric vehicle charging equipment (EVCE) units installed
•
Manufacturers’ PEV rollout plans and availability
•
Opinion of plug-in electric vehicles, including number and activity of advocacy groups
•
Statewide gasoline prices

Factors Impacting National PEV Demand •
Federal purchase incentives (between $2,500 and $7,500 per vehicle) are anticipated to remain in place throughout the forecast period
•
Increasing traditional internal combustion engine vehicle fuel economy has a negative impact on PEV sales due to decreasing cost of operation for higher fuel economy vehicles
•
Elimination or reduction of incentives would have a negative impact on demand at the national level
This is much more difficult to quantify and is more likely to have an impact in the latter years of the forecast
Battery pack costs are anticipated to fall 34% by 2017, but for several years this is not anticipated to impact the cost of BEVs as manufacturers increase the battery pack size
Manufacturers are expected to use cost decreases in 2012 to 2014 as a way to increase the range of vehicles while maintaining relatively steady pricing
After 2014, Pike Research anticipates lower battery costs will be reflected in pricing of the vehicles

Details Regarding Oregon’s PEV Forecast •
Oregon’s population of 3.8 million and new vehicle sales of 110,000 (for all vehicle classes) in 2011 were used as a baseline for calculating potential plug-in electric vehicle forecasts
•
The following assumptions are included in the forecast:
•
Pike Research created an “EV Positive Opinion Index” based on our consumer survey results. Oregon is ranked 6th with an index rating of 1.96 (a rating of 1.0 matches the national average).
In 2017 Oregon is anticipated to have the second highest percentage (5.4%) of PEV vehicles.
Oregon overall is ranked 7th for sales of PEVs
•
The combination of vehicle availability and strong advocacy from automotive manufacturers in the state will help maintain Oregon’s adoption lead over other states
Portland MSA has the highest correlation to HEV ownership of any region in the United States

Demand Drivers in Oregon •
Many of the same forces that drive demand at a national level are in play in Oregon, as well: Federal incentives of up to $7,500 per vehicle High cost of petroleum based fuels Economy and growth of automobile sales
•
PEV demand in Oregon: Concentration of EVCEs in Oregon enhances consumer demand for PEVs West Coast Electric Highway along I-5 enables lengthy EV driving •
However, while EVCE is an indicator, many communities may find public EVCE will go largely unused as commuters charge their vehicles in the evening and then drive to work, never using the public infrastructure
Short average daily driving (18.5 miles in Portland) is compatible with PEV driving range
•
Strong hybrid ownership indicative of interest in green vehicles and driving electric

Scenarios Impacting Demand • Key incentives that could positively impact Oregon demand include: Higher than expected average fuel costs could contribute to increased demand • Currently, Pike Research includes fuel cost estimates of the national average at $3.79/gallon gasoline in 2011 growing to $5.38/gallon gasoline in 2018 • In general, for gasoline prices to have impact on sales, Pike Research anticipates that fuel prices will need to be higher by about 10% or more • Assuming a 10% higher fuel cost (e.g. $4.17/gallon in 2012), Pike Research would expect between 2% and 4% increase in PEV sales • If gasoline prices fall by 10% (e.g. $3.41/gallon in 2012), Pike Research would expect PEV sales to fall at a rate of 5% or greater.
The availability of public EVCE is anticipated to have an impact on PEV sales • With an increase of 50% more EVCE in an area, Pike Research would anticipate up to 10% increase in demand in that ZIP code

Vehicles and Charging •
PHEVs and Range Extended Vehicles: Charging at between 3.3 kW and 7.2 kW using standard J1772 AC connector Charge frequently in public locations to “top off” and prevent running on gasoline power Full charging requires up to 2 hours depending on battery size Do not currently support faster DC charging
•
BEVs: Charging at between 3.3 kW and 7.2 kW using standard J1772 AC connector or at 50 kW or more using CHAdeMo or upcoming SAE combination connector Fast charging limited to commercial locations Full charging requires up to 8 hours using AC DC charging can provide 80% charge in 30 minutes or less

EVSE Demand in Oregon •
EVSE sales will grow from 1,935 to 14,164 annually between 2012 and 2017
•
Percentage of residential EVSEs sold will slowly shrink as more EV owners rely primarily on public charging
Fewer people charging at home increases the ratio of EVSE to PEV sales

EVSE Utilization Trends • Residential charging will remain the primary location, but will decrease from 67% to 56% of charging events by 2017 • Commercial charging location breakdown:
Public: retail, municipal, parking garages and lots, transit locations
Workplace: employers
Private: hotels, multi-family housing, fleets

EV Charging Impact on Utilities •
Most U.S. consumers will purchase home EVSE if possible and residential will be the most frequent charging location
•
PEVs are expected to sell in clusters, with much higher penetration in affluent areas
•
Several PEVs charging at 7 kW simultaneously can impact transformers and other distribution equipment
•
Implementation of time-of-use and EV-specific rates will encourage off-peak charging and mitigate impact
•
DC Charging at 50 kW is “on demand” and is expected to frequently occur at peak times
•
EV charging networks and operators are looking to install stationary batteries to support DC charging to avoid demand charges and peak power consumption

EVSE Future Developments •
Charging services companies like 350 Green, CarCharging Group, and EV Connect becoming major EVSE owners and operators
•
Network EVSE operators are eyeing ancillary services (AS) as revenue stream
•
Solutions for integrating EV charging with solar are developing
•
Profitable business models for operating public EVSEs remain challenging
•
EVSEs looking to integrate with home energy management systems
•
Stationary energy storage (Li-ion batteries) will play a role in home energy and AS
•
Wireless charging is in an experimental phase with several auto OEMs and the market is unlikely to materialize before 2015

Summary and Conclusions • Growth of PEV sales in Oregon will likely be strongest in areas where large state universities are present or large populations of higher income hybrid owners reside • The availability of public EVCE will generally lead the adoption of PEVs and can be used to help bolster growth • However, there’s more than just EVCEs: EVCEs best installation practices that are recognized around the country include: • Streamlining the permitting process of businesses and residents who want to install EVCE o This should include coordination by permitting body with utilities, vehicle dealers, and installation contractors (electricians) to provide purchasers with a simplified road map to installation
• Offering localized grant programs that can help provide funding to purchase and install EVCE

Summary and Conclusions After installation, providing awareness and access to maps for public EVCE networks will help build confidence in the PEV market The Rocky Mountain Institute’s “Project Get Ready” provides detailed and proven strategies for promoting PEV adoption • EV City Casebook from RMI, Clinton Climate Initiative, and IEA provides local recommendations
