Background of the project

The transport sector is globally growing and has the strongest reliance on fossil fuels from all economic sectors

GHG emissions from transport increased by 26% from 1990-2006 (in Europe) Worldwide transport is responsible for 25% of energy-related CO2-Emissions European Target – 80% CO2 reduction by 2050 compared to 1990

thus oil consumption in the transport sector must drop by around 70% from today

Expected development (globally) 2009: 6,8 billion people, 700 million passenger vehicles

2050: 9 billion people, 3 billion passenger vehicles

Mitigation of fuel-dependency and CO2-Emissions possible with Electric Vehicles?

Co-Evolution of transport sector and energy sector provides opportunities for developing Electricity from Renewable Energy Sources and Electric Vehicles

Energy systems and transport characteristics differ around the world→ need for regional perspectives

Cars are most important for passenger traffic and will most likely stay so Europe and North America rely mainly on private cars

for passenger transport

Importance of vehicles is mirrored in available infrastructure (Annex A13) Further increase in traffic expected for the European Union

Benefits regarding GHG emissions strongly depend on the regional electricity mix EVs considered as low- or no-emission-vehicles

Technically this depends on the electricity mix

EVs powered by coal-fired power plants emit >800gCO2/ km

Nighttime charging can result in both increasing the share of RES-E and in increasing the share of fossil base-load electricity and thus in higher emissions

Emissions of EVs are 50% of ICEVs’ with current European electricity mix

Emissions of EVs are 89-74% of ICEVs’ with current USA electricity mix GHG emissions lower in Canada (2006 data)

because of higher proportion of RES-E (depending on province)

Using RES-E, GHG emissions could be reduced to 75%-38% of ICEVs’ to which the new CAFE standards of 35.5 mpg by 2016 apply.

In China the high share of coal-based electricity in the grid increases EVs’ emissions above those from conventional ICEVs (2010 data)

The electricity mix in the more densely populated southern and eastern China decreases EVs’ emissions below conventional values

The northern regions that today have the highest emission values have large unconnected wind resources

General transport sector emissions policies influence also the deployment of electric vehicles GHG emissions are taken into account through

taxation in many European countries (map)(Dark Blue: more than one taxation scheme, Light Blue: one kind of CO2-tax)

and in China Tax benefits from this taxation reduce impact of

cost-difference compared with conventional cars

No taxation of GHG emissions of passenger vehicles in North America

Elevated electricity costs in Nordic countries Influence the economical viability of EVs

Variety of policies regarding future of transport Shift of commodities to rail and inland navigation

Societal change drives the deployment of electric vehicles Urbanization

Urban areas experience most traffic problems

High population density in urban areas warrants investments in infrastructure

Urban population tends to early adoption of new technologies So far the number of EVs (per head) is biggest in cities

But:

Charging infrastructure faces competition for space

Immigration and labor mobility Increase mobility needs

Customer acceptance of new mobility patterns,of the look, space and performance of EVs

The availability of charging infrastructure is a basic requirement for electric vehicle deployment Security aspect for users

Necessary for widespread EV usage Quick-charging is now being implemented

in the Nordic European countries April 12, 2011 Denmark's first quick charge station

opened (max. 20 minutes for 80 % SOC)

2 stations have been build in the Oslo area in Norway

Battery swapping stations will be built in Denmark(Figure: Projection for 2012)

In China all three charging technologies are/ will be tested

Some pilot cities have already published standards

Slow charging and battery swapping are preferred by grid companies

No governmental preferences yet

Context – Electric Vehicles – Drivers

Page 23: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

Diverse climate conditions All three regions encompass various climate zones with cold winters in the north

and humid and hot summers in the south These climatic differences will lead to different battery lifetime and vehicle availability

Landscape and road conditions vary

Areas with low population density increase infrastructural costs for widespread deployment

Midwestern America, western and northern China, northern Europe For first usage in cities population density is not an issue

Ageing population in North America and Europe Ageing people remain increasingly mobile and thus cause more traffic

An increasing share of governmental funds has to be dedicated to care Funding for new technologies becomes more difficult

Electric vehicles do not meet with favorable conditions everywhere

User concerns

High initial investment Users today are more willing to take TCO

into account for purchasing decisions

Price EVs cost at least ¥ 20,000 more than ICEVs

of same performance

40% of consumers that avoid purchasing a hybrid do so due to cost. Only 10% of non-hybrid consumers avoid a purchase due to cost.

Nordic countries: Prices on EVs (free from registration charge) coming close to those of conventional cars (including charge).EV family cars start at € 65,000 in Norway

Safety standards are especially important

Differing vehicle standards between the USA and Canada (involving bumpers, seat belts, side door strength, metric indicators, etc.).

To be harmonized by 2012

There is a need for nation-wide harmonized standards for after-market ICE vehicle conversion.

Safety of plugs and the charging process is a concern besides design, number of phases & voltage level for charging

Pure electric vehicles from independent manufacturers may not be as equipped for safety as modern cars are(airbag, anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control etc.)

The lack of standards makes long-term planning difficult for vehicle and infrastructure manufacturers No coordinated effort between car-making markets in terms of regulation

(regarding emissions standards which were agreed on in Europe & China or the type of technologies to support) yet.

Makes planning effectively for the long term difficult for auto-makers Can be somewhat mitigated by technology-sharing agreements between

companies Hinders large-scale deployment

(i.e. Chevrolet intends to produce only 10,000 units of the Volt in its first year of production in the United States).

No political will to implement high fuel taxes to stimulate the greatest advances in vehicle efficiency and alternative vehicles

Increasingly strict fuel efficiency standards are a good first step

The densely populated demand centers are far away from renewable resources in China

Energy resources – and power production – are located far from the demand areas.

Wind and other renewable energies could directly charge EVs (or swapped batteries) in both northern China as well as in southwestern China where transport of liquid fuels is inconvenient

Given the low economic development status of these areas, it is likely that low-tech, low-speed, low-cost EVs will be more accepted there.

Low-cost EVs use lead-acid batteries which are increasingly causing pollution problems in rural China.

Cooperation between stakeholders needed for Co-Evolution Co-Evolution only possible if both EV deployment and RES-E production are

encouraged RES-E production needs to increase for Co-Evolution Tariffs for charging with RES-E need to be developed

Cooperation between stakeholders Vehicle and infrastructure standards Facilitating RES-E integration Provide possibilities for RES-E charging

Globally coordinated development of standards Synergies can only emerge if technological development does not take different

directions

Co-Evolution – General Requirements

Page 58: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

Both RES-E production and EV deployment rely on electricity grids Grids need to be sufficiently stable and/ or expanded for accommodating

New centralized (off-shore/ on-shore wind) and distributed (solar PV, micro-wind, etc.) production

Preference for centralized RES-E production means more attention on transmission grids. Security of supply is seen as more important than increasing the share of RES-E.

Additional distributed load Battery swapping stations could stabilize and centralize demand A preference for home charging means increased (distributed) household-load

Opportunities for high penetration of EVs Regulated charging

For better capacity utilization

For taking stress off the distribution grid (assets)

Storage of RES-E Increase share of RES-E

Provide reserve power for grid

Stabilize feed-in from volatile sources58

Co-Evolution – Impact on power generation

This Assessment only considers global values. Results can differ for local grids. Distribution grids in urban areas may experience overloads of assets first.

For average European grids up to 40% EV penetration does not create problems

For Beijing, 100% EV commuting could not be sustainedDetails in Annex A11

Page 61: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

Chinese and North American grids may be first to have problems with rising EV penetration Chinese grids are already now straining to keep up with the increased

demand due to the rapid economic growth Power shortages, especially in the densely populated areas, have to be expected

30-60% difference in electricity demand between peak times and base load leaves room for off-peak EV charging

Investments in North American grids have decreased over the years Grid assets are old

Local distribution grids may not have the strength to supply EVs

Challenges increase with rising penetration Quick-charge at peak hours has the highest possible impact on grids and power

generation capacity Daytime charging may require upgrades in local distribution systems

in China and North America

Regulated charging is expected to prevent impact on base load power plants61

Co-Evolution – Impact on power generation

Page 62: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org 62

Renewable electricity and electric vehicles affect the stability of transmission and distribution grids Integration of distributed RES-E production and EVs influences stability of

distribution grids Communication infrastructure needed for controlled charging

Integration of large RES-E plants increases stress on transportation grids Expected increase of off-shore wind power is a challenge

European and especially Nordic grids are well designed and prepared for transporting RES-E

Modernizing and increasing the strength and flexibility in the grid will take place also without the expected increase of EVs.

Chinese grids will be strengthened with building extra high voltage transmission capacity

Grid expansion in North America is costly – especially for transmission infrastructure

Distributed generation with local grid reinforcement is a good first step Exploitation of resource-rich regions will be necessary for significant replacement

of fossil fuels (northern Canada (wind), western US deserts (sun), offshore wind).

Co-Evolution – Impact on grids

Page 63: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

The impact on grids and power production depends on time and method of charging Slow charging and Battery swapping are preferred by DSOs

Both methods spread the load over a longer period The centralized storage capacity of battery swapping stations makes them interesting for

ancillary services and demand response

Fast Charging has highest potential to destabilize the grid

Time of Charging impact Daytime, especially peak time charging will most likely result in overload in assets,

especially in urban regions (demand centers, high population and vehicle density) Nighttime charging:

The grid has transmission and distribution capacity available The use of “spinning reserve” on the grid may become more efficient RES-E that otherwise would not be fed in can be used increased use of base load power plants possible

greater coal consumption increase in GHG-emissions

Charging strategies for smart grids may focus on using RES-E for charging

63

Co-Evolution – Impact on Infrastructure

Page 64: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

Possible strategies: Preference for charging with RES-E

EVs (+ smart charging) canincrease uptake of RES-E

Smart charging makes volatile RES-E a better business case

Charging in load valleys (with RES-E) Price difference of 0.6 ¥/ kWh

An accounting system and charging infrastructure are now being built in the Nordic Countries.

Smart meters are put up as part of the "Introduction package" offered by "Better Place".

Smart meters are already installed in large scale in Sweden and Norway

Distributed expansion of both RES-E and the grid will enable higher shares in North America

Smart Meter and Smart Grids enable the grid to provide more services to support RES. Extra-High Voltage (EHV) Transmission enhances electricity transmission from remote energy resources to demand centers

Demand side management and spinning reserve secure the balance between consumption and production of RES. Strong Smart Grid balances consumption and production of RES-E

The Feed-in of stored energy allows a massive integration of RES-E.

Increased robustness and transmission efficiency are needed for a rising penetration of RES-E and EVs. To guarantee the frequency and voltage stability of the grid some simple regulations can be implemented in EVs.

Regulated charging can avoid overloads of assets. Automatic power distribution is the foundation of distribution of power according to demand.

Additional spinning reserve guarantees the balance of the grid. Strong Smart Grid manages the impact of RES-E and EVs and optimizes the demand satisfaction

Special strategies during fault times support the fast stabilization of the grid.

Rising Penetration of EV and PHEV

An accounting system and charging infrastructure are obligated as soon as possible. Both are currently being built in Nordic Countries.

To control the vehicles a communication infrastructure has to be established.

To provide V2G services more communication signals are required. With rising penetration of EV and RES-E, more charging/swapping infrastructure is needed.

A bidirectional power connection is required to earn revenue for the vehicle owner.

Regulatory framework

Emission targets for electricity production and vehicle fleets warrant other support policies

Targets for the deployment of electric vehicles are an incentive for first deployments

Standards for vehicles and infrastructure provide security for manufacturers

ConsequenceLegitimate base for further policies Opposition from the people (North America)

Feasibility Feasible in all regions Emission targets are more easily implemented for electricity

than for existing vehicle fleets Standards have to be based on technological consideration and have to be

implemented quickly 79

Coupling Renewable Energy and Electric Vehicles

Hard Coupling Electricity for charging electric vehicles is coupled to the absolute additional RES-E share in

the electricity mix

Cap and Trade Electricity production or the deployment of vehicles have to fulfill emission targets (cap) Any additional demand for electricity or additional deployment of vehicles has to be provided

from carbon-neutral sources or has to be compensated by GHG emissions reduction measures applied to other emitters that are part of the system (trade)

Manufacturers’ investments in RES-E Vehicle manufacturers can count their electric vehicles as zero-emission vehicles if they

finance new RES-E production

Grid Stabilization Bonus System Operators pay this bonus for plugged-in electric vehicles that can either provide

demand side management or ancillary services

Tax Exemptions for Charging RES-E Electric vehicles are only eligible for tax exemptions if they charge RES-E

Re-Investing electricity tax from charging current

Tax Exemptions for Charging RES-E

Vehicles are eligible for tax exemptions if they charge RES-E Exemptions from annual vehicle/ motor/ circulation taxes

Consequence Additional RES-ECost benefits for EV owners as an incentive

Increased willingness to plug in?

Costs Advanced billing system and separate metering needed

Feasibility Feasible for low penetrations of EVs. Phase-out for higher penetrations EV owners have to be able to exclusively charge RES-E

Feasible in all regions

Re-Investing Electricity Tax

The electricity tax from the traction current is invested in additional RES-E

Consequence Additional RES-E Special electricity tariff/ separate metering for EVs needed Market distortion in deregulated markets

Feasibility Feasible in all regions In North America this option might be possible only within one interconnection-area

83

Co-Evolution – Feasibility of policy options

Hard Coupling

Coupling electricity for EVs and absolute RES-E Targets Additional EVs have to be met with additional RES-E capacity

ConsequenceEVs powered by pure additional RES-E Costs (user & society)

Feasibility Unlikely for North America, because profitability is key for public acceptance of both

EVs and RES-E Feasible for Europe but concerns exist that this option may slow down

EV or RES-E deployment In China – based on policies until today – this option is unlikely.

However, if RES-E production is increased significantly and charging business models are set up, Hard Coupling may become feasible

84

Co-Evolution – Feasibility of policy options

Phase 1

Page 85: 12. July 2011

www.iea-retd.org

Manufacturers‘ investments in RES-E

EVs are considered Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV) in return for investments in renewable electricity

OEMs invest in additional renewable electricity production (depending on MJ/km per sold EV)

DSOs invest energy tax for traction current in additional RES-E

ConsequenceAdditional RES-E Can lead to more emissions from ICEVs – Coupling to fleet emission standards! Conflicts of interests possible

Feasibility Feasible in Europe, has to be introduced for all countries The vertically integrated electricity markets in China and North America may

impede implementation (if OEMs are new players in the market)

85

Cap and Trade

A Cap and Trade system for fleet emissions per vehicle manufacturer Comparable to the ETS and other C&T systems, emission targets will be adjusted

over time Earnings from the emission certificates trading can be invested into new RES-E

ConsequenceAdditional RES-E / CCS Needs strong regulatory framework Takes effect only on new vehicles

Feasibility Feasible in all countries Less likely in North America and China because national Cap and Trade systems for

GHG emissions do not exist yet.

North America & Europe

Cities and urban areas will be breeding grounds for EV deployment and charging infrastructure

EV expansion to rural areas is highly unlikely in the medium term due to infrastructure and social acceptance issues

In Phase 1 EVs will not feed back power to the grid outside of pilot projects

No problems arise in European grids for the projected low shares of EVs

Measures for increased deployment: Support policies (subsidies, tax benefits and other support policies)

Battery cost reduction / improved performance

Public information campaigns

Measures for system integration Get ISO’s involved in pilot projects or local development projects

Grid upgrades and smart grid development to allow for bi-directionality and regulation

Regulate grid expansion as a part of a feed-in tariff program (eg. suggested for Province of Ontario)

Conclusions

China – Co-Evolution requires changes in renewable electricity and electric vehicles deployment Both grid and battery technology require technological innovation in China in

order to support the integration of EV and RE Charging models must be matched with RE grid interaction models in order to

take advantage of clean energy in EVs, and suitable business models need to be developed

Emphasis should be on increasing overall RE on the grid At this time, China is focusing on large-scale RE including wind and solar projects,

with little attention paid to distributed RE generation. Private power plants are not approved in China at this time. All power must enter

the grid and be downloaded from the grid.

There should also be an emphasis on increasing population of EVs – to the scale of millions of vehicles.

It is unlikely that smart grid will be economically viable or technologically useful without such large numbers.

Incentives are needed for both vehicles and grid companies in order to attain a critical mass of vehicles and smart grid participants.
