The paper, “Charged Up: Southern California Edison’s Key Learnings about Electric Vehicles, Our Customers and Grid Reliability,” shares information based on customer data and utility operations gathered since SCE began to prepare the distribution system and its customers for widespread electric vehicle (EV) adoption in its service territory.

Standardizing PEV batteries could reduce the purchase and ownership costs of PEVS, as well as addressing additional consumer issues such as maintenance and safety. The stored, compressed air will be used to generate electricity on an “on demand” basis to meet the facility’s needs, including periods of high demand or grid outages.

During peak times, energy can also be supplanted by onsite storage and even from other vehicles using V2G (vehicle-to-grid) technology. MYTH 3: As more people buy EVs, utilities won’t be able to supply enough power to buildings or neighborhoods and homes for EV charging. Plus, there’s more to TCO than purchase price.

.” Faster charging is typically more expensive because it requires an electrical system to operate at peak power, for which utilities levy higher demand charges, since it puts more stress on the electric grid. However, these higher energy costs can often be managed through a sophisticated EV service platform for smart charging.

Auto manufacturers plan to introduce a range of plug-in models over the next 6 years, but several factors could delay widespread availability and affect the extent to which consumers are willing to purchase plug-ins. Agencies vary in the extent to which they use life-cycle costing when evaluating which vehicle to purchase.

If someone only spends $100 with me yearly to charge their vehicle at one of my high-speed chargers, I’m still probably going to see in the neighborhood of an additional $400 or $500 in home charging. The anti-EV crowd is fond of saying that EVs are going to “crash the grid.” So it becomes a long time before it starts to tax the grid.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities.
