City of East Point Electric Vehicle Rate Chau Nguyen, ECG
Page 2 | What is an Electric Vehicle (EV)? Tesla is another example of BEV.
Page 3 | Increasing Availability of Models and Brands
Page 4 | How Widespread is EV? Georgia tax credit of $5000 (now expired) on top Federal $7500 were the stimulants that pushed metro-Atlanta on top of the list of cities having highest concentration of PEV. But with state tax credit gone, will PEV continue to grow?
Page 5 | Gas Price Trend (from 2005) High gasoline price at the pump in 2011 – 2014 also drove up demand for PEV. In , depressed gas price may have the opposite effect.
Page 6 | Why EV? Individual Level Lower and more predictable fuel prices Lower maintenance costs Reduce/eliminate trips to gas station Quiet performance Quick acceleration Improve local air quality Fuel expenditures are local Higher customer satisfaction Macro Level Reduce/eliminate Green House Gas emissions Reduce national oil dependency

Page 8 | Impact of EV charger on Residential Load Depiction of typical residential electricity usage throughout the day and the impact of PEV charger against the City’s peaking period. 12PM-7PM is the most frequent peak periods for the East Point’s aggregated load All other hours are non-peak hours. Residential PEV rate should incentivize consumers to avoid charging PEV during peak period, yet stimulate charging during non-peak period.
Page 9 | Average Market Price (2010 – 2015 YTD) East Point’s excess energy was traded at the price above (on average). Note that summer has one continuous peaks, while winter have two separate peaks.

Page 12 | Evaluating $200 Incentive for EV At $200 per account and 100 customers $20,000 per years in cost Payback depends on charging station type and distance of trip Charging stations In home/residential: Level 1 and Level 2 Commercial/Gas station: Level 3 Distance driven 30 miles daily commute
Page 13 | EV Chargers Level 1 Charger: Inexpensive Take longer Charging for 30 miles requires 8 hours at 1.3 kW per hour = 10.4 kWh Level 2 Charger Moderately expensive Charging for 30 miles requires 3 hours at 3.3 kW per hour = 9.9 kWh 1.5 hours at 6.6 kWh per hour = 9.9 kWh Average about 10kWh per charge for 30 miles commute
