1 Surface Transport London s residential EV Charging Future Naveed Ahmed, Principal Strategy Planner Environment & Walking Team CIVITAS Electromobility Workshop Thursday, 16 June

2 1. The London Context 2

3 Environmental Challenges faced by London London currently exceeds legal limits for NO2 concentrations There are strong policy drivers from EU and UK Government to reduce emissions from vehicles in London The Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) will lead to significant reductions in NO2 across London Vision for London to become an ultra low emission vehicle 3 capital

4 London s growth and impact on transport 4

5 5 NO 2 Road Transport Problem The majority of NOx emissions in London are from transport, particularly where concentrations are highest and legal limit values are exceeded. Therefore, achieving compliance requires a focus on transport emissions. NOx emissions in Greater London LAEI (2010)

6 New Mayor May 2016» Deliver the electric charging infrastructure, in partnership with the private sector, necessary for a major expansion in the use of electric vehicles. (Manifesto pledge) My priorities: Build 50,000 homes each year 50% target for genuine affordability Freeze all transport fares for four years Make London safer restore neighbourhood policing, tackle gang and knife crime and the spread of extremism Be the most pro-business Mayor yet Restore London s air quality to legal and safe levels Ensure that all Londoners have the opportunity to train in the skills our economy needs Tackle low pay make London a Living Wage city Make cycling and walking safer Make London a fairer and more tolerant city, open and accessible to all, one in which all can live and prosper free from prejudice 6

10 10 Strong ULEV/EV growth for London Source London Launch es The UK has seen a surge in demand for ULEVs, including EVs 2015 was a record year of sales for EVs: 137 per cent increase in plug inhybrid registrations compared to per cent increase in pure electric registrations compared to 2014 Strongest growth featured in the South-East Projections indicate c. 100,000 ULEV cars by 2025

11 London Plan policy 6.13» Developments in all parts of London must: - ensure that 1 in 5 spaces (both active and passive) provide an electrical charging point to encourage the uptake of electric vehicles... 11

12 Our research predicts an accelerated increase in ULEVs, though what type of vehicle they will be is not yet certain Our Baseline (medium uptake) scenario predicts that with continued incentives and infrastructure improvements, we could see nearly 100,000 ULEVs on London streets by 2025 (currently ~6,500). In this scenario, Plug-in Hybrid EVs are assumed to be the dominant type of ULEV We also have a much more ambitious High Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) Scenario where BEVs are dominant and uptake is accelerated to meet our Climate Change Targets. If this can be achieved, we could achieve 300,000 12

13 Uptake will vary considerably across London... Estimated spread of ULEV uptake in 2025 (draft) 13

14 Mapping Future EV uptake 14

15 Parking/Population typologies 15

16 ULEV Delivery Plan (published July 2015) Builds on Mayor s 2009 Electric Vehicle Delivery Plan (which established Source London network and delivered 1,400 publicly available charge points) Restated Mayor s ambition to make London ULEV Capital of Europe New research and studies on ULEV uptake and ULEV charging needs Extensive stakeholder engagement Links to ULEZ and demand management measures e.g. Car Club Strategy key actions to overcome London s specific challenges

17 Taking Action themes 17

18 3. Go Ultra Low City Scheme 18

19 Overview of Go Ultra Low City Scheme Bid London Bid for 20 million in September 2015 funding from OLEV Go Ultra Low City Scheme to make this a reality In Jan 2016 we were awarded 13 million in funding 8 million 4.5 million 4 million 3.5 million 19

20 Residential charging Checked against criteria such as: Cost / Infrastructural demand Borough parking policy autonomy Impact on streetscape and accessibility (heights) Implementation time Technological resilience/future proofing 20

21 Residential options Borough/CPZ specific scheme Pan-London scheme 21

22 Borough/CPZ specific scheme Key criteria: Ideally <5 mins walk to an EVCP (maximum 10 minute walk), Reliability, ease of use, resident priority» Integrated into existing parking permits system to reduce costs and delivery timelines e.g. a resident can only park (and charge) within their designated CPZ» Local implementation but (ideally) coordinated by one centralised body providing economies of scale for procurement and installation costs, and reduced workload for boroughs Pros Works with local parking policies Controls demand through local pricing/permits Makes established delivery model easier (borough can decide own approach on EVCP policy) Provides residents with parking priority true to bid CPZs could be grouped into a scheme or neighbouring boroughs to form schemes together (modular) Cons Doesn t provide one-london wide network 22

23 Pan-London scheme One London-wide publicly accessible network that all EV users can use to park across London Key criteria:» Uniformity: one multi-operator access card and/or PAYG payment package to enable access to any EVCP in London Pros Single scheme for residents, businesses and visitors across London Familiarity and brand recognition Scope for tailoring for local area Cons/Risks Could be used for destination charging across London, promoting commuter parking, reduces residents parking priority May not control localised parking demand effectively May encourage mode shift away from PT to ULEVs > congestion and parking stress Competes with Source London and other commercial schemes e.g. POLAR Mixed signals to boroughs Requires fully interoperable scheme. Difficult to achieve with different charge point suppliers. 23

24 Next Steps on residential charging Finalising proposals Engaging with boroughs to create a network of charge points Work with car manufacturers and car sharing companies Compliance with State Aid rules 24

25 4. Research 25

26 Where to put EV points? 26

27 Disabled driver research» It [Source London website] asks me what type of connection I'm looking for: '2 Pin Domestic (E/F); 3 Pin Domestic (G); 4 Pin Type 4; 5 Pins Type 1; 7 Pin Type 2'?... I have absolutely no idea what that means! At least you know what 'unleaded' and 'diesel' are (Disabled driver asked to look at Source London website) 27

28 » With my arthritis, using the pumps at garages is tricky. Plugging in to charge the Mitsubishi is much easier for me.» (Disabled PHEV owner) 28
