IEC, the electric car and beyond

Page 2: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

• Rapid urbanization requires sustainable transport

• Paris climate agreement • IEC International

Standards published• New battery technologies

EV: broad adoption?

Page 3: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Adoption slower than expected• 2016: 2 million electric cars (from 6 000 in 2009)• Total 2016 sales = 0.86% of 90 million new cars/

trucks• 2040 EV sales projections: 6 % to 40%

Page 4: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Traditional car: self-contained, proprietary – full controlEVs directly impact existing electricity grids:• Add flexibility (slow

power transfer)• Add strain (fast power

transfer)

EVs: part of a bigger world

Page 5: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Many different chargers • Charging

infrastructure underdeveloped – different proprietary systems

• 162 000 public slow power transfer outlets

• 28 000 public fast power transfer outlets – 65% in China and Japan

Page 6: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Fast power transfer issuesReinforcements of electricity grid neededBattery technologies Focus on minimal charging time: hinders peak demand management IEC Standards for DC charging are availableBattery exchange = good alternative – strong opposition by car makers

Page 7: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

EV = expensiveBatteries: 1/3 of total cost of ownership of electric vehicleBy 2022: unsubsidized electric car will be less expensive than traditional car

Page 8: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

How far will it drive?Battery autonomy + charging time = range anxiety2015: Significant battery improvements to 295 Wh/l from 60Wh/l (2008)= EV ranges of >350 km/single charge

Page 9: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Path to mass marketInternational Standards for infrastructure, electricity supply, electric vehicle = investment securitySystems approach within Smart Energy, Smart Grid IEC expertise for EV safety; new technologies

Page 10: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Far beyond the carGrowing opportunity for electrification of many types of vehicles• Manufacturing• Warehouses• Airports• Mines• Public transportation

Page 11: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Sustainable mobility solutions neededUrban transport focussed on private vehicles = limited value for developing countries (World Bank)

High travel demand = extremely fast infrastructure development

Congestion: loss of millions of person hours – severe impact on economic development and health

Page 12: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Drivers for sustainable solutions• Rapid urbanization +

increased motorization

• Low quality public transportation

• Lack of hierarchical road and street systems – little road space

• Pollution

More expected

• Developing country megacities: today two-thirds of trips are by foot or bicycle

• Increased economic development = explosion in additional traffic demand

Peter O’Neill, Lead Infrastructure Specialist, World Bank

Page 14: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Electrification of transport• 2050: 70% of people

will live in cities• Asia 4.7 billion

population: crucial role in planning and implementing sustainable transport

• Buses, light rails, subways, cable cars need to be electrified

Page 15: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

China to increase public transport• 40% in megacities• 30% in big cities• 20% in medium and small cities• Majority of 173 000 electric buses are in China (IEA)• 2020: 200 000 electric buses and 4000 charging

stations

Page 16: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Battery exchange: buses

• Jeju and Korea pioneering

Page 17: Sustainable transportation: electric vehicles and more

Underpinning traffic infrastructure

• Transportation technologies by land, sea and air

• Smart Grid• Integration of

renewable energy • Energy storage• Battery and fuel

cell technology
