EVs2Scale2030 Will Use Data To Identify Grid Upgrades For EV Charging
is the key to unlocking utility investment sooner rather than later. That is the purpose of a nationwide initiative launched this week., it brings together EPRI, utilities, major EV truck manufacturers, government agencies, and regulators to collect data on expected future EV-charging deployments across the country. The goal is to help utilities plan and proactively build the grid upgrades needed to serve that charging so they will be ready when the need arises.
The new consortium is collecting data from electric truck makers Daimler, Volvo, and Paccar, as well as electric school bus data from the nonprofit World Resources Institute. The group is seeking the participation of more EV manufacturers and fleet operators, as well as the companies developing charging sites across the country.
“Most of the time we think about infrastructure too late in this industry,” said Henrik Holland, head of Prologis Mobility. The company has opened large scale charging sites in Southern California and has 65 more planned across the country. It is working closely with utilities to seek out sites with ample grid capacity in an attempt to avoid bottlenecks.
Carter acknowledged that utilities need to win the trust of EV-charging providers to get them to share their forecasts of where they plan to build next. “I think that as long as we’re not taking away their competitive advantage, they’re willing to share,” he said. “The sooner we can get in front of this, the better off we’ll all be.”
