EV Growing Pains Report Reveals that Newer Electric Vehicles Impact Electric Utility Demand at a Higher Rate as Average Vehicle Charging Load Doubles Over Past 5 Years
Analysis of the world's largest electric vehicle data set by FleetCarma, a division of Geotab reveals how newer model electric vehicles will impact electric utilities at a higher rate than previously projected. The introduction of long-range electric vehicle models, such as the Tesla Model 3, has redefined the industry standard for electric range as well as charging capabilities. As a result, charging load for each charging event has nearly doubled from 4.5kW on average in 2014 to 9.7kW on average in 2019. EV Growing Pains, a new report on electric vehicle charging, reveals why up-to-date data is required to mitigate risks to the electricity distribution grid and help electric utilities effectively plan for and manage electric vehicle charging.
