Lithium-ion battery costs dropped 64% since 2010, falling further in the future. Bloomberg New Energy Finance Price-parity, w/o tax credits, by (Bloomberg New Energy Finance, McKinsey)

6 EVs are already the cheapest and cleanest Out of 125 vehicle models on the road today, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles are most often cheaper than their fossil fuel counterparts over the lifetime of the automobile. They also offer the lowest GHG emissions. MIT

7 EVs are already the cheapest and cleanest

EVs and Cities fleet vehicles MN Dept of Admin Committment: Acquire 25 PEV/ZEVs in 2017 Install 15 level 2 charging stations in FY 2017 Require all new vehicles to have EPA ratings of 7 or higher

8 EVs and Cities fleet vehicles MN Dept of Admin Committment: Acquire 25 PEV/ZEVs in 2017 Install 15 level 2 charging stations in FY 2017 Require all new vehicles to have EPA ratings of 7 or higher Achieve a fleet composition of 20% PEV or ZEV by 2027 EVs are on state contract, and available for local governments: Chevy Bolt Nissan Leaf Big opportunity for local governments Adopt similar fleet commitments Use state contracts to obtain Evs Drive Electric MN and MN Dept of Admin can help support cities in obtaining EVs

10 EVs cheaper over their lifetime

11 EVs offer significantly reduced maintenance cost and hassle

12 EVs are a fuel price hedge

13 Volkswagen settlement opportunity for progress in MN $2 billion for U.S. Run by VW Eligible activities: Charging stations Education and outreach $43 million for MN Run by MPCA Eligible activities: Charging stations EV vehicles (transit buses, school buses, trucks, shuttle buses, etc)

Shuttle Bus, or Transit Bus with EV bus Other categories: Freight switchers Ferries/tugs Ocean going vessel

14 EVs Cities Other Vehicles Volkswagen Settlement can help support adoption of electric vehicles in various categories: Replace Class 8 truck with EV truck Replace Class 4-7 Medium truck with EV truck Replace Class 4-8 School Bus, Shuttle Bus, or Transit Bus with EV bus Other categories: Freight switchers Ferries/tugs Ocean going vessel shorepower Airport ground support equipment Forklifts Minnesota has $43 million to support these activities, available over 10 years.

EVs and Cities Charging Infrastructure Volkswagen settlement can support installation of Light Duty Vehicle charging equipment (up to 15% of $43,000,000 allocated to MN) They want to see evidence

15 EVs and Cities Charging Infrastructure Volkswagen settlement can support installation of Light Duty Vehicle charging equipment (up to 15% of $43,000,000 allocated to MN) They want to see evidence that chargers will be used (combine charging strategy w/ EV adoption strategy) Does your city have an EV Charging Plan? Workplace charging Multi-family buildings Public charging City-owned facilities DC Fast Charger Corridors

16 EV charging basics Type Power supply Charge time (from empty) Level 1 - Trickle 120 Volt 18+ hrs 5 Level Volt 4-8 hrs DC Fast Charge 840 Volt ~30-40 min 200 Miles per hour of charge

17 Twin Cities DCFC DCFC Corridors in progress DCFC every 50 miles I-94: Minnesota to Michigan Q I-35: Duluth to Twin Cities - Q I-35 (entire length): funding applied for

18 Twin Cities charging network level 2 and DCFC

19 EVs and Cities - Building codes Create EV Ready Multi-family, Workplace, Business. Inexpensive to add conduit up front to parking ramps and parking lots, very expensive to retrofit.

20 EVs and Cities Outreach and Education Possible activities: Ride-and-drive events EV displays at city festivals

21 EVs and Autonomous Vehicles If autonomous vehicles are EV: They will have lower lifecycle emissions and zero tailpipe emissions, enhancing the impact They will help justify investments in EV charging infrastructure through greater utilization. They will increase deployment and manufacturing of EV batteries, resulting in continued cost decreases. EVs are higher upfront-cost, lower lifecycle cost the more you drive, the cheaper they are. Clear advantage for shared AV fleets.
