Why Electric Vehicles?

CLEAN ALTERNATIVE

COST SAVINGS DOMESTIC ENERGY INDEPENDENCE

FUN FACTOR

Time

● Less time spent at gas stations - EVs can charge overnight at home

● EVs had superior acceleration

● Less time waiting for heat in the winter

Money

● Lower maintenance costs - no oil changes

● Cost of powering vehicles is far lower per mile driven

Health

● Reduced exposure to benzene and other volatile organic compounds at gas stations and in your home

● EVs run quieter, as there is no engine

● Smaller carbon footprint

Benefits of EVs

Driving Qualities of EVs

• Instant peak torque

• Regenerative braking

• Dual motor AWD options with advanced traction control

• Battery pack at bottom:• Rigidity increases safety (hard to rollover)

• Better handling

• Low noise

Time

● On longer trips, harder to charge and can take longer than filling up

● If you want to take a long trip, need to plan out a route and schedule in charging times OR rent an ICE vehicle (internal combustion engine)

● Not many charging stations, but many coming in next 12 months

Money

● High upfront cost

● High depreciation rates / low resale prices

● May need to replace tires more often (because of the faster acceleration)

● May also need to pay for an EV charger at home - another $1k-2k

Drawbacks of EVs

Driving EVs in Winter

Extreme cold impacts rangePassenger heating requires more energy

Cold batteries have greater resistance to charging and do not hold a charge as well

Technology is improvingBattery heaters

Software to schedule charging completion for time of departure to keep the battery warmer

Drivers can offsetEco-mode

Seat and steering wheel heaters

Federal Incentives to Purchase an EV

• Lease credit goes to leasing company –may lower lease cost

• Phase out begins when 200,000 sold by manufacturer

• Tesla - phased out

• GM (Chevy, Cadillac) - phasing out

Check fueleconomy.gov for list of vehicles and applicable credit amounts

• $4,000 credit received with state income tax refund - may be applied at purchase with some manufacturers

• $2,000 for 2-year min. leases

• Decreases in 2021 to $2,500/$1,500

• Refundable

Electric Vehicle Charging

Charging Your Electric Vehicle at Home

It’s as simple as plugging in at your place, no more stops at the gas station

Every Plug-In EV Comes with a Level 1 Charger

Level 1 Chargers

• Can be used inside or outside

• Provide ~40 miles of range from an overnight charge

• Work well for EV drivers commuting 30 miles or less each day

• Are great for Plug-In Hybrid EVs

• All you need is a regular 120V outlet in your garage or driveway

Investing in a Level 2 Charger makes Home Charging Faster and More Convenient

Level 2 Chargers

• Can be used inside or outside

• Provide 30-60 miles of range for every hour charging

• Work well for EV drivers commuting over 40 miles/day, or those needing to quickly charge up

• Are good for EVs with more battery range (100+ miles)

• Best selling chargers cost $600-$700, and offer an app for easy scheduling on your phone or tablet

Level 2 Chargers May Require Special Wiring

Level 2 Chargers

• Require a 240V circuit wired from your garage or driveway to your electric panel, usually completed by an electrician

• Wiring varies by location, but we’ve seen it cost an average of $700

• Require room in your electric panel, a 240V circuit takes 2 slots. If panel upgrades are needed, costs can increase

• Visit Charging Your EV page on XcelEnergy.com/EV for list of electricians who are familiar with installing chargers and understand our pricing plans

Time of Day – Whole home

Requirements: Single family home – We replace your current meter with a TOU meter

Value: If you can wait to run major appliances & charge your EV overnight (between 9:00pm – 9:00am) you can save.

Costs vary, but an average driver charging every night will pay about $25 - $30/month for their EV fuel

Regular Residential

If you can’t move your whole home’s major energy use to off peak time, consider scheduling your EV to charge overnight. Charging at night helps us use more renewables on our grid

Costs vary, but an average driver charging every night will pay about $40/month for their EV fuel

Windsource for EVs

Take your environmentally-friendly vehicle to the next level and support renewable energy by purchasing Windsource to power it

Charging, Chargers and Apps

How far do you drive every day?

Charge Where You Park & Charge While You Sleep

90% of charging occurs at home

Most Americans drive <40 miles/day

Fast-chargers aren’t usually used like gas stations

Provide a quick 3-5 minute top off to get you home

For road trips, expect 20-30 minutes of charging

Level 2 destinations chargers can provide a range boost while you work, dine, or shop
