INL is the lead laboratory for DOE’s Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity. INL’s conduct of the Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity resulted in a significant base of knowledge and experience in the area of testing light-duty plug-in electric vehicles and electric charging infrastructure that reduce transportation-related petroleum consumption. Because of this experience, INL was tasked by DOE to develop agreements with companies that were recipients of American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 Transportation Electrification grants that allowed INL to collect raw data from light-duty vehicles and charging infrastructure developed and deployed as a result of these grants. INL developed non-disclosure agreements with several companies and their partners, which resulted in INL being able to receive raw data via server-to- server connections from the partner companies. These raw data allowed INL to independently conduct data quality checks, perform analyses, and report publicly to DOE, partners, and stakeholders how drivers used both the new advanced plug-in electric vehicle (PEVs) technologies and the deployed charging infrastructure. The ultimate goal was not deployment of vehicles and charging infrastructure, but rather creation of real-world laboratories of vehicles, charging infrastructure, and drivers that would aid in the design of future electric drive vehicle transportation systems. The five projects and the goal of each project that INL collected data from were as follows: 1. ChargePoint America – PEV Charging Infrastructure Demonstration 2. Chrysler Ram PEV Pickup – PEV Demonstration 3. General Motors Chevrolet Volt – PEV Demonstration 4. The EV Project – PEV and PEV Charging Infrastructure Demonstration 5. South Coast Air Quality Management District/Electric Power Research Institute/Via Motors – PEV Demonstration. This document serves to benchmark the performance science involved in execution, analysis, and reporting for the five projects and share lessons learned based on drivers’ use of vehicles and recharging decisions made by the drivers. Results are reported describing the use of more than 25,000 vehicles and charging units across the United States. iii CONTENT ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................................. iii ACRONYMS ........................................................................................................................................ xxxvii 1.

  • Plug-In-Electric-Vehicles-Fact-Sheet
    Plug-in Electric Vehicles June 2014 Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) use electricity from the energy grid to charge large battery packs, then use the batteries to power an electric motor. Because they are primarily powered by electricity instead of liquid fuels, these vehicles produce no tailpipe emissions. Plug-in vehicles can also generate power from a regenerative braking system, which converts kinetic energy from the vehicle’s brakes into electricity and stores it in the battery pack. Because plug-in vehicles rely on rechargeable batteries for power, each vehicle has an electric range – the maximum number of miles it can travel on battery power before it needs to recharge. Applications for these vehicles go beyond just passenger cars (though U.S. consumer passenger PEVs are the focus of this fact sheet), as there are currently plug-in electric commuter buses, utility trucks, high-performance vehicles, and motorcycles. There are two main types of plug‐in electric vehicles: All-electric vehicles (EVs) only use electric power from the grid; they do not have an internal combustion engine and do not use any type of liquid fuel. Because they have an electric motor instead of a combustion engine, they require less maintenance than most conventional cars. They do not need radiator fluid, timing belts, fuel filters, oil or oil changes. EVs use large battery packs to give the vehicle a long electric range – a typical EV will have a range of 70 to 100 miles, though some can travel up to 265 miles on a single charge. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are powered by a combination of grid electricity and liquid fuel.

  • Master Thesis
    Master Thesis Designing Value Propositions for Disruptive Innovations; Exploring Value Proposition Design in the Case of Electric Vehicles Author: J.G.A. (Jilles) Visser Student number: 10475699 Supervisor: dr. R. Bohnsack Date of submission: July 2, 2015 Study programme: MSc Executive Programme in Management Studies Track: Strategy Faculty: Faculty of Business and Economics Statement of Originality This document is written by Jilles Visser who declares to take full responsibility for the contents of this document. I declare that the text and the work presented in this document is original and that no sources other than those mentioned in the text and its references have been used in creating it. The Faculty of Economics and Business is responsible solely for the supervision of completion of the work, not for the contents. Abstract From disruptive innovation theory as well as from business model theory it has been argued that a good business model can compensate for the technological shortcomings that hinder further market penetration of a disruptive innovation. However little empirical research about this phenomenon exists. Because the value proposition is considered to be the central part of the business model, this thesis explores how value propositions are designed to increase the attractiveness of a disruptive innovation for the mainstream market. The electric vehicle, which is an example of a disruptive innovation, serves as the context for this study. By studying the value proposition, this thesis tries to respond to the quest to add more empirical insights from diverse disciplines about what factors contribute to success of the electric vehicle. Using a multiple case study approach, the value proposition of thirteen electric vehicles that are sold in the Netherlands and/or United States is analyzed.
