• Potential for Smart Grid / Demand Response to manage
charge times in evening
Able to plan infrastructure upgrades with planned
installations in high traffic areas

Network statistics can track usage trends and allow for
demand response and tiered billing to create incentive
to increase usage during off peak hours
•
Drivers are more likely to be “topping off” and will be
more flexible around charging times
•
Power for 25kW Charger is easer to accommodate
with out infrastructure upgrades than 50kW Charger
• Distributed infrastructure. Many potential points to
upgrade
• Difficult to plan infrastructure upgrades to meet
increased demand (rely on permitting house surveys to
find high EV adoption locations)
