Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure Manufacturing
January 1, 2010
The global electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure manufacturing industry is associated with
a highly complex and interconnected transportation economy that supports the use of
plug-in electric and hybrid electric vehicles for personal and industrial use. The
infrastructure required for a sustainable EV transportation requires various EV
components, such as electric vehicle drive trains and rechargeable electric batteries.
The infrastructure also includes the access to electricity required to fuel the EVs via an
interconnected electric smart grid, centrally located and shared charging stations,
personal charge points, centrally located electric battery swapping stations. Finally, the
EV infrastructure is made of the tools, technology, and skilled personnel needed to
maintain the vehicles, monitor smart grid electricity demand, and construct the
necessary EV infrastructure components. This report examines the global activities and
market value of the EV infrastructure manufacturing industry - an industry at a
crossroads in its nascent life. Vehicle companies spent much of 2009 avidly promoting
their pure plug-in EVs and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) products at trade shows. But the
growth potential of EV adoption is stagnated by the lack of an underlying transportation
support system of EV charging stations, switching stations for rechargeable batteries,
and an advanced electricity smart grid to monitor the ebb and flow of power for vehicle
consumption. Although the global economic situation appears to be rebounding,
manufacturers have indicated that EV infrastructure production will begin in earnest in
2010. Fueling that growth will be government grants created to stimulate economic
recovery, particularly in the U.S. SBI Energy expects EV infrastructure production efforts
to accelerate by mid-2010, particularly around the manufacturing of the rechargeable
batteries, drive trains, and charging stations required to operate the vehicles. Growth
also depends heavily on the investment interests of the private sector and the adoption
of PHEVs and EVs by consumers.

Market Insights: A Selection From The Report
Growth Trends of EV Ownership
The U.S. remains the largest vehicle market in the world. Of the 204 million personal
vehicles, the average U.S. household owns 1.9 vehicles, which is slightly more than the
average number of drivers per household. Most personal vehicles rely on the ICE, and
burn gasoline fuel at an average rate of one gallon every 20 miles. Compare that to
HEV fuel consumption and it‟s a completely different picture. SBI Energy estimates that
HEVs consume an estimated 6.3 million gallons (in gasoline equivalents) compared to
198 million gallons of compressed natural gas and 138 million gallons of liquefied
3. petroleum gasoline. By 2014, SBI Energy expects electric fuel consumption in the U.S.
to grow to nearly 9 million gallons, but still represent less than 1% share of the total fuel
consumption pie.
Part of that stagnant growth is that despite the advancements in battery technologies,
vehicle manufacturing and consumer ownership of PHEVs and HEVs has fizzled in
recent years. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimated there would
be 55,852 PHEVs in 2004, with an annual growth rate of 39.1 %. By 2007, its Annual
Energy Review (AER) estimated the actual number of PHEVs on the road in 2004 as
49,536. The slower industry growth rate, SBI Energy believes, is mostly due to a lack of
manufacturer incentives to mass produce PHEVs in a cost effective process. As a result
it will take some time before manufacturing of PHEVs and HEVs gains significant
momentum. Through 2014, we forecast the number of EVs on U.S. roads will grow at a
five-year CAGR rate of 3.4% and reach in excess of 65,000 vehicles.
Adoption of Lithium-Ion for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles
Mercedes-Benz is one of the first manufacturers to bring a lithium-ion hybrid vehicle to
production with the Blue Hybrid, although Toyota has been selling a mild hybrid model
called the Vitz with a lithium-ion battery option since 2003. Toyota only sells a few
hundred cars with this option a year. But even with four years of experience with lithium-
ion, Toyota still leverages Ni-MH battery technology in its 2009 Prius. (Note that the
Tesla Roadster, which sold its 100th vehicle in late 2008, is not the first lithium-ion
hybrid; it is an all electric vehicle using lithium-ion batteries. It is also not a large volume
production car.) As of mid-2009 there are almost no exceptions; battery and vehicle
manufacturers alike are adamant that future hybrids and upcoming PHEVs will use
lithium-ion battery chemistries. Manufacturers are embracing lithium-ion‟s higher energy
density over Ni-MH. GM, once the bellwether American automaker, is set to introduce
its Volt lithium-ion powered PHEV in late 2010.

Electric Vehicle Market Finds Growth in New Markets, EV Infrastructure
Manufacturing Challenged to Step Up
New York, March 15, 2010 - For years advertising from government and car
companies alike have boldly stated that it was only a matter of time before electric
vehicles took over the car industry. Now, electric vehicles, in the form of hybrids that
combine gas and electric motors, are finally beginning to do just that.
According to SBI Energy‟s latest market study, Electric Vehicle (EV) and Plug-In Hybrid
Electric Vehicle (PHEV) Markets Worldwide, the U.S. and Japan currently make up the
largest segments of the hybrid electric vehicle marketplace, with 42% and 48% market
share, respectively.
4. “SBI Energy forecasts the market to double, for a total of 1.5 million passenger hybrid
vehicles sold in 2014,” says Shelley Carr, SBI Energy publisher. “The majority of growth
will stem from smaller HEV markets such as Europe, Australia and South Korea, as well
as new markets such as India and China. These countries, SBI Energy forecasts, will
see a phenomenal 47% growth rate over the next four years.”
In the global perspective, future growth of the electric vehicle market will depend on
three key motivators: Pain at the pump; Government Support; and Price differential.
Astronomical oil prices experienced in 2007, lead to the sale of 353,000 hybrid
vehicles that year. This proves that consumers purchase the most efficient
vehicle possible when gasoline prices rise.
Government incentives will continue to be the primary motivator behind
consumer sales of hybrid electric vehicles. In the U.K., the British government
has created a subsidy program worth 230 million pounds for electric car
purchases. Furthermore, they have approved 30 million pounds to implement
charging stations. Manufacturers in the U.S. will also benefit from federally
funded grants, such as $5 billion available to produce energy efficient batteries
and $500 million more to create the components needed for EVs.
Just as important as government incentives and oil prices is a reduction in the
price between hybrids and non-hybrids. The price for hybrid vehicles is currently
$3,000 to $7,000 more than the price of a similar gasoline-only vehicle. A
premium some consumers are not willing to pay.
Success of the EV market is also incumbent upon the EV infrastructure manufacturing
industry. Infrastructure components include the smart grid, advanced battery research
and vehicle charging stations that enable drivers to refuel their vehicles conveniently
and effectively. According to SBI Energy‟s market research study, Electric Vehicle
Infrastructure Manufacturing, the global market value of smart grid manufacturing
related to plug-in and electric vehicle deployment is $29 billion. This equates to nearly
42% of the total smart grid market value.

Electric Vehicle Market to Stagnate without Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Growth
New York, June 22, 2010 - The growth of adoption may be stagnated by the lack of an
underlying transportation support system of electric vehicle charging stations, switching
stations for rechargeable batteries, and an advanced electricity smart grid to monitor the
ebb and flow of power for vehicle consumption.
As global economies slowly recover, manufacturers have indicated that electric vehicle
infrastructure production will begin in earnest in 2010. Government grants created to
stimulate economic recovery, particularly in the U.S., will fuel growth in the sector.
Electric vehicle infrastructure production efforts include manufacturing of the
rechargeable batteries, drive trains and charging stations required to operate the
vehicles. Electric vehicle production itself is on track for global sales exceeding 1
million hybrids a year by 2013.
Europe, the current leader in electric vehicle infrastructure manufacturing production, is
expected to maintain its stronghold through 2014. However, its global share will slip as
North America and Asia gain ground. According to the industry study Electric Vehicle
(EV) Infrastructure Manufacturingconducted by leading market research publisher
SBI Energy, the North American market will grow from $9 billion in 2009 to $20 billion in
2014.
“Our study projects North America will hold 20% of the electric vehicle infrastructure
manufacturing market by 2014, driven by government incentive programs and the
movement toward eco-friendly consumer lifestyles,” says Shelley Carr, publisher for SBI
6. Energy. “While government capital is vital, growth also depends heavily on the
investment interests of the private sector and the adoption of electric vehicles and plug-
in hybrid electric vehicles by consumers.”
Electric vehicle sales depend upon the support of charging stations, batteries, and
smart grid tie-in. Consumers will be won over by reliability, safety, and system
convenience. The onus is on the cooperation of utilities to modify their established grids
to adapt to the electricity demands of electric vehicles and their users.

vehicle market with forecasts through 2014 and provides detailed information on the
smart grid market, rechargeable batteries, electric vehicle ownership and stimulus funds

Portugal Matures into Formidable International Trendsetter with Sweeping Clean
Energy Initiatives
New York, September 1, 2010 - As countries around the world scramble to create,
deploy, and sustain clean energy adoption initiatives, few have done so with the gusto
of Portugal. The country is quickly emerging as a “green” trendsetter due to its
determination to reduce its dependence on imported fossil fuels by channeling its wind,
solar, and hydropower resources and by improving smart grid capabilities and exploring
the use of electric vehicles—even though such clean energy transitions have come at
substantial financial costs.
“Germany is well-regarded as a green energy leader with its hefty share of the total
installed wind energy capacity in Europe. But it‟s Portugal that has us excited, and we
anticipate enormous growth in the country‟s generation of wind power due in large part
to government stimulus incentives,” says Shelley Carr, publisher of SBI Energy, which
released the market study Offshore Wind Farm Manufacturing Worldwide in April
2010. “Though Portugal‟s efforts come at a price, one must remember that this is a
region with prodigious wind and water power resources, both of which are widely
regarded as the most cost-effective to harness.”
In terms of world numbers for smart meter installations, some industry estimates see a
fivefold rise—from roughly $50 million in 2010 to $250 million by 2015. Much of this
7. huge and rapid increase in smart meter installs will take place in Europe, according to
SBI Energy’s Smart Grid and Consumers Other sources reveal that five years ago
only 17% of Portugal‟s smart grid power originated from clean energy resources, but
that number could rise to almost half of the nation‟s smart grid power by the end of
2010.
Meanwhile, Portugal is making progress on the electric vehicle front. “There is
tremendous optimism that Portugal could become the first nation with a national
network of charging stations for electric cars,” says Carr. SBI Energy’s Electric Vehicle
(EV) Infrastructure Manufacturing reveals that the European-Union sponsored
Sagittaire is running demonstrations of hybrid buses in eleven cities across France,
Spain, Portugal, Norway, and Italy. In each city, the hybrid-electric bus fleet will be
tested under different operational and practical conditions. In addition, Portugal is
involved in the Renault-Nissan Alliance‟s zero-emissions vehicle initiatives that are
sweeping Asia and the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Ireland, Israel, Denmark,
and Monaco.
And with automakers in Europe planning new business models for electric vehicles and
plug-in hybrids before 2011 that could completely overhaul its electric vehicle
transportation infrastructure by eliminating the need for gas stations and relinquish
fueling responsibilities to utility companies, Portugal has steadfastly proven itself a
willing participant and test projects are in development for the country.
