4. Outline:
1.Why EVs Matter to Electric Utilities
2.EV Adoption Technology and Services
3.Case Study – NB Power’s EV program
4.Case Study – Central Maine Power’s EV program

5. 3 Common Reasons Why Electric Vehicles Matter to Electric Utilities

6. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
Why utility companies say EVs matter to them
1.Maintain good utilization of long-term assets
•By providing more reliable, balanced, and cost-effective electricity services to their customers
•EVs can provide additional load that can be needed to keep electricity rates stable if there is a rapid uptake in off-grid sources of supplier for electricity consumers

7. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
Why utility companies say EVs matter to them
2. Environmental benefits from enabling conservation and renewable generation
•EVs, as part of a smart grid, can support integration of stronger renewable and conservation markets

8. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
Why utility companies say EVs matter to them
3. Enable creative business opportunities
•Provide ancillary services and equipment to consumers
•More net exports

9. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
Electric Vehicles in the Utility’s Fleet
1.Plug-in bucket trucks with ePTO have increased the availability time for line work, offering better service to customers with reduced noise and air pollution
2.Regional customer service managers making use of passenger plug-in vehicles
3.Gather data on EVs to inform scalable EV deployment strategies
4.Back-up storage to provide grid support in emergencies

10. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
Benefits of Customer Engagement Programs
•EV program managers at the utility need new and effective ways to positively interact with prospective and current EV owners
•Many electric utilities are the local trusted energy advisor on a number of electricity matters – EVs are an extension of this service
•Understanding future system impacts from clustering in commercial and residential sectors – what are the DR opportunities?

11. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
EV adoption program challenges
•Every market is different
–Incentives and motivations vary
–Infrastructure and system impacts / resiliency vary
–Buying preferences vary
•Every owner and duty cycle is different
–An EV will not work for every job
–There is uncertainty on how today’s technology and economics ‘fit’ into the business case for fleets

16. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
The EV utilization challenge for fleet operators
Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) need to:
•Be range capable for their fleet application, while keeping the vehicle utilization up
Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) need to:
•Maximize their electric driving as a proportion of total utilization

17. Electric Vehicles & Electric Utilities Webinar
3 Step Approach to Successful EV Integration
(1)
Data log existing
fleet of vehicles for 3 weeks
(2) Test your duty cycle data in FleetCarma’s validated EV powertrain models
(3)
Modelling results are reported in a user-friendly web portal, ranking of the best-fit EV for each duty cycle examined
Will EVs be capable to do the job?
Will they save fleet money?
How are vehicles currently used in the fleet?
Which EV technology best matches fleet needs and optimizes TCO?

Conclusions
Regional-specific approach is required
•There are a lot of reasons why electric utilities are taking an active role in the local EV industry in their service area
Glass half-full perspective is taking the lead
•Initially, EVs may have been seen as disruptive loads, but now they are very often seen as business opportunities and enabling technology
Informing strategies and campaigns with good EV data
•Customer engagement programs are helping refine short- term and long-term strategies for the utility including decisions around the types of incentives, services, and asset management
