Value of Research
The research conducted in the Electric Transportation program holds value to both its utility customers and industry stakeholders as well as to the public. Potential benefits include:
Value to Utilities and Other EV Industry Stakeholders
- Greater understanding of EV-related customer preferences and behaviors to inform the design of effective utility EV programs
- Deeper knowledge of local and regional EV markets to inform the design of effective utility EV programs
- Improved understanding of national and global EV markets, technologies, and trends to inform utilities as they design effective EV programs and adapt their systems and operations to EVs
- Greater understanding of the potential benefits of EVs for the environment, grid operations, customers, and society
Value to the Public
- Reduced greenhouse gas emissions and improved air quality as a result of widespread EV adoption
- Enhanced grid reliability and safety and lower electricity costs as a result of effective integration of EVs
- More customer choice regarding energy use, technology adoption, and charging infrastructure
- Greater awareness and understanding of EV technologies and applications
