• Published in the journal nature climate
change, the study by engineers at the
University of Toronto concludes that 90% of
light-duty cars on American roads would need
to be electric by 2050 to keep the
transportation sector in line with climate
mitigation targets.
• That might mean requiring all of the nation’s
new car sales to be electric as early as
2035, the state target established by
California gov. Gavin Newsom (D) in an
announcement last week.

• Infrastructure would be capable of supporting the 3.5 MW load in 2025
• The grid has adequate capacity to supply this load at most of the charging sites
identified in 2025.
• Rural sites would have more difficulty meeting the projected load demand and would
likely need additional infrastructure improvements.
• By 2030, the larger projected 23.5 MW loads for MD/ HD charging sites would
require more extensive improvements at nearly every site
• New feeders, generally dedicated to the charging site load, substation
transformers, and other improvements,
• Transmission system improvements at some locations, would be required.
• The 2 mw fast chargers have the potential to severely affect the grid because of
the high electrical demand.

EV Charging Stations
A microgrid provides:
• Economic benefits vs grid power
• Resiliency in energy supply
• Reliability in sources of electricity
• Implementation of Renewable technology
• Economies of scale via standardization of product
Building a profit center from EV charging stations – Economic
Dispatch
Existing, dynamic, and growing marketplace
• Sell EV charging microgrid capacity back to grid
• $500k/year per 20MW microgrid in revenue through selling capacity to grid
Reasonable assumptions: 4 hrs./day, based on 2022 off-peak pricing, 50% diversity factor
Meet customer need
Satisfy stakeholders
Optimize opex
Platforming approach

• A containerized approach fits spatial
characteristics and travel stop layout
• 20MW displaces fewer than 10 parking spots
(green)
• Batteries located in unused area (blue)
• Depending on land availability, the solar
tech is greenfield, dispersed, or carport
design
• Fully integrated microgrid with standard
components
• Standard gensets with all benefits of
commonality
• Works regardless of Grid Constraints
• Potential to run on Hydrogen or Renewable
Natural Gas for low to no carbon footprint
