Electric Vehicles are here!

• Fun to drive!

• EVs are much appreciated by their drivers!

• The ordinary parking place of the EV is most important charging place • Nice NOT to have to drive to a filling station • Public Charging makes the EV driver feel more secure • Less range anxiety • Visibility for EVs

EV work in Stockholm

EV City 2030 Clean Vehicles and Fuels Strategy • EVs • Public Charing Infrastructure • Incentives • Knowledge

Why an EV procurement?

Make sure EVs and PHEVs come to Sweden – Cleaner and quieter vehicles Simple and easy to purchase an EV or PHEV – Savings of costs and time for public entities Test fleet of 50 vehicles 400 participating organisations Funding for the additional cost of the car of 100 000 SEK/ vehicle for 600 vehicles

EV development in Sweden (April 2014)

• Large growth from 2012 – Even larger in 2014?

• PHEV to Sweden during 2013 and 2014 • The national EV procurement was 25 % of all new EVs in 2012 • The EV procurement has almost 10 % of all vehicles in operation in Sweden today Källa : ELIS

Drivers experiences

Range anxiety?

Wikipedia: Range anxiety

is the fear that a vehicle has insufficient range to reach its destination and would thus strand the vehicle's occupants . Yes and No!

Initially yes – but much depending on introduction and information – Where the EV is placed – Communication with the driver

Drivers experiences

Increased usage of the vehicles Test driving is important Winter and cold out door temperature have negative impact on range – Heating (& cooling)

Drivers experiences

Charging behaviour – Charing at the EVs ordinary parking place = 98 % of the charging • Little need for public charging (mainly vehicles in organisations) • Initial interest to experiment….

• Different users – different routines Driving behaviour – Range is affected by way of driving – Driver need to pay attention

How to cure range anxiety?!

Drive an EV!!! – Test driving, test cars – The more experience the less anxiety Public Charing Infrastructure?!

Make sure you place the EV where it can make good use Introduction for the drivers In severe cases of range anxiety a PHEV is recommended.

Lessons learnt Vehicle procurement

 Sweden got access to EVs early in  Europe. We put Sweden on the EV-map  Prequalification was good Difficult for the car industry to follow the tendering process  Several disqualified bidders

Infrastructure

 Most important at the EVs ordinary parking place  No clear business model for public charging  Drivers like NOT going to a filling station

Thanks!
