9. Charging Power Levels 120V (1.2 kW) charging –Plugs into standard household outlet –Full charge in about eight hours (temperature dependent) –No additional equipment or installation (?) –Charge cord standard with the vehicle in NA 240V (3.3 kW) charging –Full charge in about three hours –Efficient and enables more opportunity to drive electrically –Will usually require a one-time investment to upgrade garage with dedicated 240V circuit Charger and control logic onboard the vehicle Designed for global voltages 120V Cordset 240V Charge Station

11. Home Charging can be a real satisfier for consumers, but there is a lot of potential variability that we have to help manage… Garages can be filled with junk and need to be rearranged to make room for the charger Some garages already have washers/ dryers or refrigerators that operate on 220V lines but making room for additional line a challenge Locating charger on right or front of vehicle works better for some. But garage clutter is still an issue

15. Top Priorities for Overall Utility Support: Consumer EV support (24/7 operator for EV charging questions) Residential infrastructure assistance Fast, convenient installation process that is affordable (i.e. satisfying) Utility handles entire home installation process OR Coordination between Utility (meter) and 3 rd party installer (EVSE) Outreach and leadership in readying regions for plug-in vehicles Key stakeholder outreach City/regional initiative to put enablers in place Consumer education Compelling consumer EV rates and easy sign-up process Inform customers of best options, preferred rates, green options Policy assistance (e.g. eased permitting, building codes, incentives) Expanded fleet purchases Home InspectionEVSE InstallationMeter InstallationPermit/InspectionRate Signup

18. Whats the Right Balance Between… Being Prepared and Being Positive? Overly ConcernedNot Concerned Enough Grid cant handle PEVsGrid can handle millions of PEVs and utilities can easily keep up with PEV loads Electricity will come from coal Electricity is always cleaner than gasoline Home charging/installation is fraught with problems that will dissatisfy consumers Its easy – find a normal household outlet and plug it in Theres a real infrastructure challenge and we need to install lots of public charging Just charge it at home – as it was intended Volt will be too expensiveVolt will fly out of dealer showrooms
