Why EVs in London?
• Climate Change
– Road Transport produces 16% of London’s CO2
– EVs emit ~40% less CO2 using UK grid supply
• Air Quality
– Road transport produces 45% of London’s NOx and 56% of central
London’s PM10
– EVs have no tailpipe
• Low Carbon Economy
– Potential to contribute 10-15k jobs
and £600m annually to London’s
economy by 2025
• Journey Times and Trendsetters
– 90% car journey under 10km
– ~24% of British EVs are in London
National UK Action
Office for Low Emission Vehicles
(OLEV)
• Cross-government department to position the UK at the global
forefront of ULEV development, manufacture and use. This
will contribute to economic growth and will help reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution on our roads.
• Previous funding = £400m from 2010 to 2015
 Infrastructure: including Plugged in Places (PiP) programme to
kick start public charging infrastructure
 Consumer grants: Plugged in Car and Plugged in Van grants
to reduce high upfront costs of vehicles: on going
 Research & Development: vehicle technology

Charging Infrastructure
No Londoner to be more than 1 mile
from public charging point
• Employee car parks to offer workplace
charging points installed by business
• London Plan
•
20% of all new development car parking
spaces to provide EV charging
•Comprehensive Public Network

Charging Infrastructure
Source London
•Launched May 2011
•Now over 1400 charge points are available across
London
•The largest publicly accessible charging network in
the UK
•All points can be accessed by one smart card
•Membership £10 and electricity free
•Siemens delivering back office and IT to facilitate:
•Call centre for help, reporting issues
•Maintenance and emergency call out
• Facilitated by Plugged in Places grant
•£9.3M over 3 years to March 2013

A Sustainable Future
• The EV charging industry has reached a
level of maturity where it can continue to
develop without the need for public subsidy
• TfL appointed IER To take over
management & operation of Source from
Summer 2014
• Plans to expand network to 6,000 points by
2018 and move to a pay-as-you-go model
• Launch event was on 12.3.14
Incentives & Information

Incentives & Information
Integrating purchasing power
Developed 2 procurement frameworks
1.
To enable purchase up to 1,300 electric vehicles
2. To enable purchase £30M of electric vehicle
charging infrastructure
• Economies of scale
• Standardisation and interoperability
• Both frameworks run until 2015
Vehicles - Olympics
EVs and the Olympics
Vehicles
•
•
•
LOCOG had 200 electric vehicles in
their Olympic fleet
116 electric vehicle charge points
were installed in and around
Olympic venues
First time, in the UK, that multiple
vehicles have been charged
concurrently using multiple charge
points
•
Data collected enabled impact on
grid and energy usage within depot
to be monitored
•
114,315 miles covered by EV fleet in
4 weeks
Vehicles: TfL Fleets
• Electric Buses
– Currently trialling 2 electric
buses
– 6 more due 2014
– Trialling inductive charging
• Support Fleet
– 8 EVs now and 2 more on order
– Funding to increase to 120
– Required in contracts
(e.g. Victoria Bus Station)

National Infrastructure Strategy (Sept
‘13)
• Vehicle Uptake
• Infrastructure
• Skills Development
• Smarter Electricity Grid
• New Funding: £500 million for 2015-20
• “Call for Evidence” launched in Nov 2013 to inform development
of new UK-wide package with aim to provide:
 Market sustainability (move away from public subsidies)
 Inward investment and economic benefits for whole UK
2015-20 OLEV Funding Package
• New Funding: £500 million for 2015-20
• Main elements of package announced April 2014 including:
£200m for continuation of the Plug In Car & Van Grants
 £31m grant support for other ULEVs e.g. HGVs and P2Ws
 £35m cities scheme for 2-4 flagship cities
£30m for hybrid & electric buses
 £32m for infrastructure incl. rapid chargepoints
 £20m for ultra low emission taxis
 £4m for gas infrastructure
 £100m R&D (vehicles & infrastructure)
• ~£50m funding unallocated to enable flexibility as
technology and market develops (e.g. hydrogen)
Research:
Plugged in Fleets Initiative
• Objectives
TfL sees commercial fleets as a key area of
focus for EVs
This initiative was proposed by TfL to try and
understand whether there is a business case
for EVs in commercial fleets
• Key findings
Summary report published on 23 January 2013
Headline is that there is a clear business case
for EVs in commercial fleets, taking into account
the current suite of incentives available
DfT funding a further 100 fleets nationwide

Vehicles:
Zero Emission Capable Taxis
• Mayor announced aim to
require all new taxis to be zeroemission capable by 2018
• TfL engaging with taxi
manufacturers
• Public consultation on
proposals later this year
Research:
Rapid Charging Study
• Feasibility study looking at
potential for rapid chargers in
London
• Will investigate locations,
business models and
challenges for installation
• Specific focus on needs of
taxis and private hire fleets
• Due to publish spring 2014
Proposed Ultra Low Emission Zone for 2020?

Future of EVs in London
• TfL will apply for support for / direct applications to :
– Zero Emission Taxi Fund for purpose built taxis.
– Supporting the roll-out of hybrid and electric buses
– Support for city initiatives such as for the UK’s first Ultra Low Emission Zone
through a number of complementary measures
– Dedicated Fleet rapid charging infrastructure
– ULEZ implementation costs
• European Projects
• We are working with partners across Europe on LEV projects, including
Clean Fleets, CAPIRE, FR-EVUE, ICVUE, ZEUS, UNPLUGGED
• Updating our London Strategy
