10、ic vehicle(EV)adoption and charging infrastructure scaling will increase exponentially over the next several years.The development of the EV supply equipment(EVSE)infrastructure system is in its very early stages,but significant sums of money are being invested to accelerate it.Many potential hosts
11、of EV charging sites are uncertain of the economic value of the EV charging customer and may not fully understand the behavior and preferences of EV drivers.The demographic profile of todays EV driver in the US is not representative of the overall driving population,but insights can be gleaned from
12、their behavior,as well as from the behavior of drivers in other regions of the world with more mature EV markets.The systems and programs needed to capture and develop insights need to be in place before the coming inflection point.A better understanding of EV drivers today can inform how the EVSE m
13、arket can best serve the needs of EV consumers as the market grows and matures.BACKGROUNDTRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS5TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTSThis research project followed an integrated approach to determine the cur
14、rent perceptions and behaviors of light duty EV drivers and charging station operators and site hosts.The methodology involved four phases of research implementation.PHASE 1Survey with EV Drivers in the US:In this phase,n=500 US EV drivers(18+)from a panel sample participated in a 15-minute online s
15、urvey.To ensure a representative sample,a quota was applied to the number of respondents from each of the four selected US demographic regions.The survey ran from April 7 to 21,2023.Data was collected on EV drivers driving behavior,public charging behavior,and public charging experiences.The survey
16、also asked about EV drivers preferences on charging station features and services.The data was then subjected to discrete choice modeling,total unduplicated reach and frequency(TURF)analysis,and segmentation analysis to determine the charging station features and services most preferred by customer
17、segments.PHASE 2Survey with Business Operators in the US:A 15-minute online survey involved n=251 owners,presidents/CEOs,and general managers of businesses in the US.The respondents were enlisted from a panel sample of existing US businesses.To ensure a representative sample,a quota was applied to t
18、he number of respondents from each of the four selected US demographic regions.The survey ran from April 7 to 21,2023.Based on natural fallout,the respondents were categorized into two groups:EV charging station site hosts and operators and non-EV businesses.The objective of the survey was to gather
19、 insights from site hosts and operators about their business setup,experiences with EV charging station installation,profitability,and issues encountered in the EV charging venture.From non-EV businesses,data on their business setup,likelihood to invest in EV charging,and reasons for not investing i
20、n EV charging was gathered.PHASE 3In-Depth Individual Interviews with Major Site Hosts and Charger Operators in North America and the EU:This phase of the research project was a qualitative deep dive to gain insights from existing charging station site hosts and operators in North America and the EU
21、.There were nine in-depth interviews conducted with current EV charging station site hosts and operators in North America and two in the EU.Out of 11 total interviews,10 were with site hosts,and 1 was with a charger provider.Each interview lasted about an hour to get detailed information from site h
22、osts and operators on their experiences setting up their charging stations,investments,daily operations,profitability,and overall lessons learned from their investment.PHASE 4Survey with Non-EV Drivers in the US:To get a more holistic picture of the entire US automotive market landscape,a 10-minute
23、online survey among n=1,010 US non-EV drivers(18+)was also conducted.The survey ran from April 28 to 30,2023.Data gathered included vehicle ownership,likelihood to purchase or lease an EV,and access to charging stations.METHODOLOGY6This section summarizes the key findings of the study and highlights
24、 the discrepancies that exist between the different audiences that took part.EV DRIVERS PREFERENCES VERSUS SITE HOSTS OFFERINGSData shows that about half of electric vehicle(EV)drivers households(49%)own at least one other type of vehicle in addition to their EV.A quarter of them(25%)have a liquid f
25、uel vehicle and 21%have a hybrid.This means that a significant number of EV drivers need to find both petroleum-based stations and charging stations for their vehicles.Moreover,62%of EV drivers report that their driving mileage has not changed since having an EV and 31%say they are driving more.Resu
26、lts also show that EV drivers have amenities and services preferences.They discriminate between EV charging stations based on the amenities offered.The top five of their preferred amenities and services are(1)multiple charging spots allocated,(2)open 24/7,(3)chargers located in highly visible areas,
27、(4)bright lighting around the charger units,and(5)visible security cameras.Notably,four of the five in EXECUTIVE SUMMARYElectric Vehicle Market InsightsTRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC7TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTSthis list concern customer safety.Interestin
28、gly,only about half to two-thirds of site hosts offer exactly these amenities and services to their customers:chargers in high visibility areas(68%),security cameras(65%),bright lighting(56%),multiple charging spots(46%),and open 24/7(52%).Another analysis in the study provides guidance on the set o
29、f features and amenities site hosts can offer to maximize their reach to EV drivers.The most effective set of amenities and features to reach 93.1%of EV drivers consists of the following:Chargers located in highly visible areas Multiple EV charging spots Prepared food like sandwiches and pizza Open
30、24/7 Childrens playground on siteTo slightly increase the reach to 94.2%just one more feature needs to be added to the list in the 93.1%reach set:visible security cameras.In terms of the charging experience,half of site hosts(51%)say they have experienced less than 10%downtime and another 44%say the
31、ir EV chargers have less than 20%downtime.These results are validated by the EV driver study results.A third of EV drivers(34%)say they have experienced at least one problem at a charger not an insignificant number,but at the same time,most(65%)say it is rare.Just 9%of EV drivers say they frequently
32、 experience EV charging issues.EV drivers do not think they have long waits to plug into an EV charger at a host site.Most EV drivers(84%)say they dont have to wait at all or have a very short wait,while just 15%say they typically wait longer than five minutes at an EV charging location.Site hosts s
33、ay they do not have any data on what EV drivers are spending in stores.However,78%of EV drivers say they get out of their car at public charging stations and 30%say they typically buy a drink or a snack while their vehicle is charging.MAJOR INDUSTRY PLAYERS PERCEPTIONS VERSUS SMALLER SITE HOSTS PERC
34、EPTIONSMajor industry players,companies that have a minimum of six EV charger sites,do not think site hosts are in a hurry to own and operate their own EV chargers.However,site hosts in the study are more likely to own their EV chargers than lease at this time.Specifically,69%of site hosts claim tha
35、t they own their EV chargers,31%revenue share,and 16%lease their space to EV charger operators.Site hosts are thinking about expanding the number of EV chargers they offer in the future.Of existing site hosts,85%put in the necessary infrastructure and wiring to increase their EV charging capacity du
36、ring their initial EV charger installations.Different groups have different perceptions of how long it takes for EV chargers to be delivered and installed.Overall,major industry players believe that lead times to get EV chargers installed are longer than site hosts experience.Industry players percep
37、tion is that it takes normally about a year from ordering the EV charger units to installation.Two-thirds of site hosts(66%)say it is normally less than 6 months,and 31%say it takes 6 to 12 months.Major industry players in Europe believe that permitting and licensing are a significant burden for sit
38、es.They say installation can be complex because government,contractor,and utility bureaucracies are difficult to align and coordinate.Most US site hosts(58%)say permitting and licensing were easier than expected,with only 12%saying it was more difficult than expected and 30%saying it was about what
39、they expected.Overall,all US stakeholders think local governments are generally cooperative in assisting EV charging sites in adoption and permitting.Most site hosts(94%)say their local government was at least somewhat cooperative,and 91%say their local 8TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC
40、VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTSgovernment was knowledgeable on permitting.It is a different scenario in Europe,where permitting is believed to be complex and time-consuming.There are discrepancies among the groups about how they believe EV drivers are paying their charging fees.Major industry players believ
41、e most customers are paying via app,not credit card.Site hosts say the majority are paying with credit cards(85%)or digital wallets(79%).Just a third(31%)say EV drivers are using an app.EV drivers themselves say they pay by digital wallet,credit card,and app about equally(32%,29%,and 25%,respectivel
42、y).Major industry players are more likely than smaller site hosts to think utilities are more of a hindrance.Major industry players feel utilities cannot keep up with the pace of demand by site hosts,while 98%of smaller site hosts said their local utility was at least somewhat responsive to their ne
43、eds and requests.Maintenance of EV chargers is not seen as a major issue by either major industry players or smaller site hosts.Both groups believe EV charger original equipment manufacturers are quick to respond to issues.All the site hosts included in this study said their EV charger manufacturer
44、was at least somewhat responsive to their maintenance requests.Finally,the study shows that site hosts are at least satisfied with their EV charger revenues.This does not mean their EV charger operations are profitable,but that the site host is generating revenues from their EV charger investments t
45、hat meet or exceed their expectations.Specifically,54%said their EV charger revenues exceeded expectations and 44%said revenues met expectations.Site hosts are generating revenues from their EV charger investments that meet or exceed their expectations.89TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC

47、s.EV drivers charge their EVs at various public charging stations for 30 minutes to an hour.About 30%of them buy a snack or drink while waiting.Digital wallet,credit card,and a card connected to an app are the most frequent payment methods.A quarter of EV drivers also have a gas-powered vehicle.EV d
48、rivers locate charging stations about equally from an app on their phone or their vehicles navigation system.Most EV drivers(62%)are driving about the same number of miles they did before owning an EV,with about a third(31%)driving more.THE EV PUBLIC CHARGING EXPERIENCE About a third of EV drivers s
49、ay they have experienced a technical problem while trying to charge their vehicle;however,most say it happens rarely.Only 15%of EV drivers say they normally have to wait five minutes or longer to get access to a charger,while 84%say they either dont have to wait or the wait is less than five minutes
50、.All EV driver segments rate having multiple EV chargers at a location in their top five most desired features in selecting a charging location.The bundle of features that has the highest reach(94%of the market)includes chargers located in highly visible areas,multiple chargers,visible security came

99、 is key.At the customer level,price is a major sticking point educating customers to understand the factors that go into pricing EV charging is important for managing expectations.For the site hosts themselves,access to data on utility costs,demand charges,and customer data is pertinent in their bus
100、iness partnerships with charger providers.Invest in amenities and payment methods that foster a satisfying and seamless customer experience.TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS4242EV CHARGING SITE HOSTS PROFILE Site hosts currently operating in North America and the E
101、U who were interviewed for this phase of the study have between 12 and 700 individual charging units at their locations.These businesses operate in 893 locations across their operating regions.Their core business is typically a convenience store.When asked about the charging unit suppliers they have
102、 arrangements with to operate their EV charger business,the site hosts reported that these suppliers are either third-party operators(like Tesla,EVGo,and Electrify America)or system providers(like ChargePoint,BTC,and FreeWire).FACTORS INFLUENCING INVESTMENT IN INSTALLING EV CHARGERSWhen asked about
103、what influenced them to invest in EV chargers,the key themes that emerged from their responses were:Preparing for the future.A wave of EVs is coming,and businesses need to be prepared for the change.An asset that is viable.Site hosts believe that EV chargers are here to stay,and businesses need to b
104、e ready to fulfill customer demand.Exploration.Businesses venturing into the EV charging space are seeking to understand who the customers are,how much they can charge them,what makes EV charging different from liquid fuel purchasing,if EV charger customers will come into the stores,what the pain po
105、ints are,and how will existing liquid fuel customers react to EV chargers?A business opportunity was presented to diversify their income by leasing on their lots to bring in new customers:EV drivers.SOURCES OF FUNDINGSite hosts revealed that they have received funding from federal and state programs
106、 and grants.Two programs mentioned by interviewees were the NEVI program and the VW funding.The NEVI program(established in 2021)is creating an attractive atmosphere for the EV industry.However,it comes with hurdles.There is a lot of interest in the funding,causing crowding in the application proces
107、s.s.There are requirements for NEVI funding,such as bathrooms,lighting,minimum downtime etc.s.NEVI is inflexible.Site hosts said that NEVI is very heavily focused on building out infrastructure along highways.s.The incentives are making EV charger installation attractive,because without them,it can
108、be tough to sell the idea to company leadership,and it is difficult to make a business case for it.The VW funding(established in 2017)is currently available in only two states.This funding is helping companies test out EV charging stations.$92%8%51%LESS LIFETIME GHG EMISSIONS THAN ICEVs77%USE PUBLIC
109、 CHARGERSTRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS43EXPERIENCES WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENT PERMITTING AND LICENSINGIn trying to understand the site hosts experiences when they were starting up their EV charger business,interviewees were asked about their perceptions of their lo
110、cal governments permitting and licensing process.Interviewees in North America stated that overall,governments are very cooperative in assisting them with installing EV chargers.However,there are differences between jurisdictions.Permitting and licensing run the gamut and it is hard to predict what
111、kind of support a company will receive.Also,permitting in the US can be intensive and litigious;hence,in some locations,permitting is a big burden.In the EU,obtaining permits is seen as complex and time-consuming.Local governments have their own regulations and requirements for installing charging s
112、tations.Operators therefore have to navigate through paperwork,zoning regulations,and inspections specific to the locations they are applying for.However,overall,most local governments were supportive of the transition to EVs and worked with site hosts to overcome challenges.BUSINESS MODELS AND SERV
113、ICE LEVEL AGREEMENTSTo get an idea of the business arrangements site hosts have with their EV charger suppliers,they were asked to describe the business model and service level agreements(SLAs)they have put in place.In the US,EV charger site hosts operate various business models with different types
114、 of SLAs.Site hosts that lease to partners only have access to top-line data,and information disclosed varies among partners.This information can include:High-level data such as number of charges per month at locations How much they are charging the EV driver and the revenue from it The speed of cha
115、rging and how much power they are pulling from the grid with the kilowatt hours Utilization:charge session counts,the number of vehicles that visit a station on a monthly basis,and dwell time(how long people are staying)Site hosts reported that they do not have access to utility costs,demand charges
116、,and other cost indicators.They mentioned the lack of transparency about what the monthly demand charge on the utility bill is or any of the costs of the charging.Those who lease space to charger hosts also said that normally they do not get access to the charging hosts costs to buy electricity,how
117、much their electric bills are,and how those charges equate to what the monthly demand charge is.In the EU,site hosts and charger operators focus on building high-power charging hubs with a level of comfort and service similar to that of traditional petrol stations.Charger operators use proprietary o
118、perating systems for remote monitoring and management of charging stations.These systems track usage,manage payments,and perform maintenance tasks.TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS44INSTALLATION PROCESSAccording to North American site hosts,the amount of time betwe
119、en ordering the EV charger units and the installation process varies from 2 to 18 months.They mentioned that utility companies cite challenges in response to growing demand from the EV industry.EV charging can put significant stress on utility companies existing systems and processes and they are no
120、t necessarily keeping up with demand for charger installations given their other competing demands.In the EU,where the EV charger market is more mature,site hosts said that the installation process can be complex.It requires effective project management to complete installations within agreed-upon t
121、ime frames.The process involves site surveys to assess location and power supply requirements,collaboration with local contractors for electrical infrastructure installation,and coordination with stakeholders such as property owners,utility companies,and local authorities.EU companies emphasized tha
122、t the availability or lack thereof of high-power grid connections can be a bottleneck in the installation process.OPERATING SYSTEMSIn North America,operating system warranties are covered by manufacturers for most site hosts,while the maintenance package is typically covered under a separate agreeme
123、nt with a service provider.There are three types of arrangement:Warranty is completely covered by the manufacturer.The maintenance package is essentially the warranty.The charger operators own the infrastructure and are responsible for it throughout the term.In the EU,site hosts own and operate thei
124、r EV charger infrastructure and have proprietary responsibility over all their operations.The systems they put in place track EV charger units usage and perform maintenance checks at all their locations.FEE STRUCTURESome site hosts in North America do not pay any fees,while others did not feel free
125、to disclose their fee structure.In the EU,site hosts reported that they pay a per-use fee to the charging operator based on energy consumption.TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTSTRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS45CUSTOMER PAYMENT AN
126、D PRICING STRUCTUREIn North America,most customers pay through their network app for a charging session.This payment system involves an ACH-type program.If a customer has paid for a subscription when they purchased their vehicle,they pay from their account as they charge,or they set up“pay as you go
127、”through a credit card.Some site host companies stated that their customer payment metric varies from site to site.Some site hosts charge customers per minute or per kilowatt hour.There is a great deal of variety in their pricing structures,but the common sentiment among site hosts is that demand ch
128、arges are a big factor in how they charge customers for the services they offer.One company mentioned that their pricing structure is not that different from liquid fuel pricing.They consider the cost of electricity,the utilization rate at the site,and the competitive dynamic in the area.The biggest
129、 difference is that electricity itself is relatively cheap,however,the value in the service is the amount of electricity delivered in a short period of time.This provides the charger operator with flexibility in pricing strategy.in DCFC systems it is delivered In the EU,there are multiple payment op
130、tions:contactless payment methods,credit/debit cards,mobile apps,and RFID cards.Site hosts highlighted that their focus is on providing a seamless and user-friendly payment experience.MARKETING EV CHARGINGIn North America,most companies have done very minimal marketing of their EV charging capabilit
131、ies.Many are leaving the marketing of EV chargers to the EV charger companies,especially Tesla.Some site hosts are posting on social media to advertise their EV chargers.Some are advertising promotions and rewards at the charger itself,but this tactic has had little traction.The most aggressive mark
132、eting efforts are done at the local and regional levels and have tie-ins with local events and sports teams.In the EU,site hosts revealed that their marketing strategy has been emphasizing an awareness of EV benefits and the convenience of charging services.They have employed a mix of digital market
133、ing,targeted advertising,collaborations with EV dealerships,and industry event participation.INSIGHTS INTO DAILY OPERATIONIn North America,site hosts(most of whom operate convenience and fuel retailing businesses)observed that EV charging has caused a disruption in their traditional industry.To them
134、,it is not clear what charging standards will be instituted in the future.Charging operators realize that the EV charging industry is still in the adoption curve.They see that some sites are making a profit and others are losing money.North American site hosts reported that maintenance of the EV cha
135、rger units is not much of an issue.The few problems they cited are physical damage to the plug,the cables being ripped off,or a charger being hit by a car.They also mentioned a problem called“ICEing,”when a non-electric vehicle(i.e.,a vehicle with an internal combustion engine;hence the term“ICE”)in
136、tentionally or unintentionally parks in an EV charging spot,blocking EV drivers access to an EV charger.Site hosts also mentioned that getting access to data and having it integrated into their standard point of sale and their business analytics systems is a need.They emphasized that they need more
137、visibility into what is happening to improve the customer experience.They also underscored the importance of their partnership with charger manufacturers to maintain TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS46the reliability of the chargers and minimize downtime of the EV
138、charger units.In the EU,companies recognize the importance of establishing effective communication channels with customers,manufacturers,and government agencies to address issues and improve charging experiences.INSIGHTS INTO PROFITABILITYSite hosts in North America said EV charging is not yet a sig
139、nificant source of revenue for most companies.Tesla chargers tend to be the most used.Revenue is mostly a fixed arrangement between the charging infrastructure provider and the operators,agreed upon when the contract is drawn up.A fixed rebate per charge is typical.Site hosts that own the charging u
140、nits highlighted that demand charges are a major concern.To them,it is critical to understand how utilities will bill a site for its electricity supply.They advise other businesses trying to venture into the EV charger space to consider all variables when planning to expand.They said that potential
141、site hosts need to proceed with caution.The standardization of chargers has not been finalized yet.1 They suggest a site-specific approach to a business development plan and caution that there is a lot of variation across site networks and some sites are inherently not conducive to EV charger invest
142、ment.Space allocation and the cost of land is another major consideration.Land is much more expensive in urban areas.North American site hosts reported that,at this time,government investment is the main driver for EV charging expansion.They said the market opportunity is there,and funding is availa
143、ble for it.If businesses dont think they can profit in the short term,a check from the government will give them 1 Note:The interviews were conducted before broad industry adoption of the North American Charging Standard(NACS).the infusion they need to explore the EV charger space.However,while ther
144、e is an appetite to own and operate EV chargers,site hosts are not in a hurry to invest for the long term.They are assessing the business itself and learning while they try different business models before they make significant investments.In the current market conditions,site hosts are focused on d
145、eveloping their locations so they can easily expand their EV charger capacity to handle future demand.They are laying conduits underground and doing electrical upgrades now to be ready for quick expansion later.In the EU,site hosts and charger operators are experiencing a similar business scenario.T
146、hey are focused on government incentives and subsidies to improve profitability.They are,however,wary about potential changes in energy costs.They are monitoring and adapting to fluctuating energy costs and distribution fees affecting their profitability.INSIGHTS FROM CUSTOMERSSite hosts in North Am
147、ericaare gaining brand recognition by offering EV chargers,which are often viewed as a green initiative.They reported that positive customer experience helped them finalize partnerships with EV charger manufacturers manufacturers want to partner with specific site hosts because of positive customer
148、feedback at their locations.Site hosts also observed that positive EV charging experiences are linked to amenities offered at their locations.Large lots,lighting,clean restrooms,food and drink offerings,Wi-Fi,places to eat,vacuums,and 24/7 operations all add to EV driver customer satisfaction.On the
149、 other hand,pricing tends to be a sticking point with EV drivers.They are unaware of how TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS47they are charged and how the price of charging is established.In the EU,EV charger site hosts observed that customers appreciate the ability
150、to pay for charging without the need for an app or subscription.Like US EV drivers,EU customers desire a satisfactory experience at charging locations with the complete suite of amenities with restrooms,seating areas,vending machines,and fast internet access topping the list.LESSONS LEARNEDIn North
151、America,the main themes that emerged from EV charger site hosts experience are:Government subsidies are giving site hosts the opportunity to learn about the business and establish a network before customer demand increases.Know your utility bill.This is important in terms of both site selection and
152、utilization.Potential site hosts are learning that knowing what the utility bill will be and understanding the market potential of specific sites are important before plunging into the business.Site hosts must familiarize themselves with the utility rate structure for every site.They need to know wh
153、at they expect the demand to be and what the rate structures are in order to model their return on investment.Businesses need to think about the long term.They need to consider the possibility that their EV charger manufacturer will say they can no longer service its chargers because the models are
154、outdated or the parts are no longer available.Some site hosts are cautious of availing themselves of the NEVI program funding because of concerns about high demand charges.One site host observed that for a 150-kilowatt minimum for four chargers,a$10 per kilowatt demand charge would equal a$6,000 mon
155、thly fee which quickly adds up.According to their calculation,revenue from customer charging sessions will take three to five years to cover those costs.They expressed the need for legislative regulatory changes to address this.The amount of time it takes to charge limits the number of customers tha
156、t can be serviced in a day.EV drivers take an average of 30 minutes to charge their vehicle.Business should explore marketing support to drive customers to charging sites.External apps,car manufacturers equipment,and other channels are effective ways to draw EV charger customers.Site hosts need to t
157、reat the EV charger service as a business at the outset,rather than a sustainability program.They need to look ahead to scalability and apply lessons learned along the way to develop a longer-term business plan.Getting into the business is the best way to understand the business.In the EU,site hosts
158、 emphasize:Continuous improvement.They recommend focusing on educating customers,improving infrastructure,and developing user-friendly interfaces.The importance of customer comfort.Providing a comfortable and enjoyable charging experience contributes to customer satisfaction and loyalty.Anticipating
159、 and adapting to market changes.Staying updated on market trends,regulatory changes,and technological advancements is important to remain competitive.TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|ELECTRIC VEHICLE MARKET INSIGHTS48RESULTSPhase 4 Survey with Non-EV Drivers TRANSPORTATION ENERGY INSTITUTE|EVC|EL
