1 Plug-in Electric Vehicles and Infrastructure Green Technology Summit April 19, 2011

2 Overview Background Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) Activities ARB Regulations Plug-in Electric Vehicles are Here! EV Infrastructure Incentives Finding a Clean Car Plug-in Electric Vehicle Collaborative (PEVC) Conclusions

3 Who We Are California Air Resources Board is part of the California Environmental Protection Agency Our Mission is: To promote and protect public health, welfare and ecological resources through the effective and efficient reduction of air pollutants while recognizing and considering the effects on the economy of the state.

4 The Goal is Zero A car today is 90% cleaner than one produced in 1960.but more needs to be done to meet our smog and greenhouse gas goals Number of cars (millions) Year NOx and HC emissions (million tons per year)

5 Regulations - History ZEV regulation originally adopted in 1990 Modified over the years to account for technology readiness and cost Successes Hybrids - 250,000 Battery electric - 30,000 with many more coming to market Plug-in Hybrids coming to market Fuel Cells not too far off Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) Standards AB 1493 Pavely GHG Standards

6 Future Standards Advanced Clean Cars Package going to Board in November 2011 Aligning GHG standards with Federal Government ( models) Reducing smog/tailpipe standards ( models) ZEV 2.0 mandate (2018+ models)

7 Plug-in Electric Vehicles are Here!

8 Chevy Volt Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Can go about 35 miles using only the battery Costs about $32,780 with incentives Available now in limited quantities with plans to increase production

9 Nissan Leaf 100% Electric Vehicle $20,280 with federal and state incentives About 70 miles per charge Available in limited quantities with plans to increase production Some Great Benefits Home Charging Carpool Lane Quiet smooth driving Free parking in Sacramento

10 More to Come Ford Focus EV Rav4 EV Tesla Model S Mitsubishi i-miev Toyota Plug-in Prius Smart ED Hydrogen fuel cell vehicles from Honda, Kia, Toyota, Nissan, Mercedes and General Motors When there are more hydrogen fueling stations

11 Electric Vehicle Infrastructure

12 SAE J1772 Good news: All U.S. EVs and plug-in hybrids will be equipped with industry-standard SAE J1772 inlets to connect to AC. This system makes charging safer, and also makes public or shared infrastructure much more cost effective 12

13 Need for Public Infrastructure? Opinions vary: Some automakers believe public chargers may be needed to make early customers feel more secure- to help address range anxiety. Not known yet how much they are needed, or how they will be used. Emergency use?, or Routine use? Others believe that fast-charge stations might be useful along major inter-city corridors 13 Several studies underway, results in 2013

14 Need for Public Infrastructure? 14

15 Infrastructure Research Results 2013 The EV Project ( Federal grants to deploy home and public chargers in 18 major cities including San Francisco, LA and San Diego ChargePoint America/Coloumb Federal grants to provide free home and public charging stations in Sacramento, San Jose/San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles Ford Focus EV, Ford Transit Connect, Smart Fortwo ED and Chevy Volt

16 CA Early Infrastructure Status ~3,000 Public EV charging stations once existed in California Not all in working condition, many are obsolete Some still-operating stations were maintained and repaired by volunteers! Good news - CEC has awarded $1.9M grant to Clipper Creek to update California's existing public chargers Clipper Creek Update Existing EV infrastructure To SAE-J1772 Without Stranding Existing Drivers Many local areas funding infrastructure

17 PEV Incentives Bringing Down the Costs

18 PEV Incentives Federal Tax Credits - Up to $7500 for PEVs - Up to $4000 for FCVs California Clean Vehicle Rebate Project - Up to $1,500 for NEVs and ZEMs - Up to $5000 for BEVs/FCVs - Up to $3000 for eligible AT PZEV - Remaining Funds $5,259,429 - Funding will continue but possibly at lower amounts per car.

19 PEV Incentives (con t) Charger Installations Federal - 30% tax credit (up to $2000) for home chargers California - CEC AB $15M grants for public charging Other HOV Lane Access Free parking (local programs)

20 HOV Lane Access Yellow Stickers - hybrids Program expires July 1, 2011 White Stickers Federal Inherently Low Emission Vehicles (ILEV) that meet SULEV or ZEV emissions standards can still get sticker and use lane CNG, PEV, H2 fuel cell Expires in 2015 New Program Begins in 2012 Qualifying vehicles are Enhanced AT PZEVs Maximum of 40,000 vehicles Expires in 2015

21 California is Taking the Lead

22 California PEV Collaborative Public-Private partnership Released Strategic Plan in December 2010 Will continue for next two years to help achieve market growth by 2020 Mission is to facilitate deployment of PEVs in CA Goal is to fill in the gaps and not take over what is already being done

23 Finding a Clean Car

24 Buy Green - Look for the Label

25 DriveClean.ca.gov All certified vehicles EP Label scores Side by side comparisons Incentives Fueling/ Charging information

27 Conclusions This is an exciting time for California We are aligning with Federal Government Many electric drive vehicles are coming to market The State wants to play a key role to ensure the success of plug-in electric vehicles to meet our economic, energy and environmental goals.
