Market Operations Engagement Group EVSE Working Group – Principles September 7, 2016 Presentation material does not represent the views of the Joint Utilities Engagement Group as the group is still in discussion on these topics. Please do not redistribute this deck.

Guidance Requirements to Address – Supplemental DSIP The Supplemental DSIP also presents the opportunity for the utilities to collaborate in the development of initiatives that will have the effect of reducing carbon emissions, including de- carbonizing the transportation system. One such opportunity that should be addressed in the Supplemental DSIP is planning for, and enabling increased deployment of, electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE). The market growth of plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) will be enhanced by the State’s PEV deployment goals resulting in increasing demand and adoption of PEVs and the corresponding need for EVSE will likewise increase (p. 25) Coordinated statewide approaches by the utilities will directly contribute to market development and decreases in carbon emissions. In addition to new demand on the system resulting from PEV charging service, issues related to vehicle-grid integration will have direct impact on utility operations and planning. Therefore, it is appropriate for the utilities to include consideration of EVSE deployment as part of the DSIP process. (p. 26) While PEV and corresponding EVSE market conditions may vary across the state, early planning should identify and address collaborative initiatives that can set the stage for accelerated market growth. The collaborative planning may also be supplemented by individual utility initiatives, consistent with the collaborative planning for the deployment and integration of EVSE in their service territory. (p. 26) The required engagement plan should also include a description of plans to coordinate and engage with stakeholders including the industry and municipalities in investigating and developing their EVSE deployment approaches or proposals. (p. 26)

Market Operations Engagement Group Charter Purpose: Explore the Joint Utilities' approaches for facilitating market mechanisms that effectively support and encourage the adoption of Distributed Energy Resources while meeting customers’ needs and complying with the DSIP Guidance Order. Topic & Scope: Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) EVSE Describe and discuss current or planned areas of JU collaboration on EVSE issues: REV and other demonstration projects Customer outreach and education efforts Involvement or coordination with EV-related state and local partnerships, programs and initiatives Discuss the opportunity for the JUs to contribute to a coordinated collaborative effort around the broader EV market issues in New York Discuss various forecasting methodology and tools related to EV adoption, and explore JU input into a shared view for New York State, considering transportation sector impacts as well as state and federal requirements Discuss potential principles for utility facilitation of EV infrastructure

Joint Utilities Principles for Utility Involvement

Proposed Principles for Utility Involvement The JU will support NY State’s GHG, ZEV, air quality and other energy policy goals by facilitating EV infrastructure deployment approaches that: Support New York State’s ZEV goal of increasing EV adoption by 40 times by 2025 Maximize long-term net benefits to utility customers by enabling the improved asset utilization that EVs offer, while mitigating incremental peak load impacts Support a positive customer experience The JU and each utility will collaborate to support the achievement of State/regional EV market objectives through participation in local, regional and state-wide EV market development activities

Proposed Principles for Utility Involvement The JU will commit to collaboration between the utilities to develop a consistent EV Readiness Framework that is aligned with and responsive to New York State initiatives for advancing the adoption of Electric Vehicles The development of this Framework will be guided by Federal, State and PSC policies for advancing the adoption of EVs (e.g. State Energy Plan goals and requirements under the Clean Air Act §177 Zero-Emission Vehicle Program) The EV Readiness Framework will be developed by the JU within 12 to 15 months of filing the SDSIP. The JU will seek periodic stakeholder engagement and input during the development process

Proposed Principles for Utility Involvement The JU EV Readiness Framework will incorporate and leverage utility core business strengths and may include the following objectives: Support acceleration of EV adoption by identifying and addressing key infrastructure planning considerations, including: Technology maturity and technology evolution considerations Collaboration on necessary changes to local ordinances and building codes EV specific interconnection requirements, processes and timelines Deployment timing, dependencies and EV penetration rate considerations Development of processes and procedures to support planning for, as well as efficient and timely installation of, EV charging systems Create a positive customer experience beginning with education and outreach Identify and develop communication channels for outreach through utility programs as well as through collaboration with stakeholders, share information about electric transportation options and charging options Support convenient and consistent driver experience with charging stations including EV roaming Adopt EVSE policies as developed in other proceedings Support integration of charging systems with existing and planned utility systems Support approaches to serving low-income or underserved customer groups or locations

Proposed Principles for Utility Involvement The JU will support the advancement of EVSE objectives through the existing REV demonstration framework or other mechanisms that enable the utilities to propose approaches to increasing EV adoption and EVSE deployment. Demonstration projects will: Support REV goals to animate the market May propose ways in which private investment can participate in EVSE deployment and leverage near-term utility ratepayer investment May be used to develop and test pricing mechanisms, the ability to effect EV adoption, load management practices and customer experience May be used to develop and test business models that may ultimately foster a competitive market for EVSE investment Utilities should be permitted to test and develop different deployment approaches that consider the unique characteristics of their service territories, and will collaborate and work to identify appropriate best practices that can be adopted across the JU
