EVs & Storage

“We’re working within the confines of customers already using their auto OEM app or Level two charger app. We’re not requiring them to download another app.”

“Utilities are uniquely positioned to bring together and advise all stakeholders to address the operational and technological challenges associated with installing a wide enough network of high-powered chargers for commercial vehicles.”

“We’ve developed a platform called EV Data Aggregation that collects the charging data from both level two chargers and vehicle telematics. Those data insights can help utilities with grid and infrastructure planning.”

“The utility, a stakeholder that often flies a bit under the radar, will be an essential part of a sustainable zero-emission vehicle future.”

“The core challenge for our society and country is to develop charging infrastructure. This one we need to solve first and then talk about more sophisticated challenges.”

Accenture's report “The Role of Storage in the Path to Net Zero”: “We make a case for storage and you can see the impact it can have on whole system costs, if the costs fall and solar costs fall with it, as per current trajectory. It looks good, but the costs are still high.”

It’s still too early to assess the full breadth of the pandemic’s impact on battery storage projects and decarbonization goals.
