This document discusses electric vehicles (EVs) and their integration with renewable energy power systems in the Pacific region. It covers key EV components like batteries and electric motors. It discusses challenges like the lack of charging infrastructure and technical support capacity in Pacific Island Countries. The document proposes a regional program and policy to address barriers and promote EV adoption. Targets include having 10 EV models available by 2030 and making EVs integral to regional transport by 2050 with services like electric aircraft and boats. The program would focus on policy, skills, investment, and regional cooperation to establish sustainable mobility.
The document outlines a plan to develop electric vehicle infrastructure in London through partnerships. It aims to install 25,000 charging points across the city by 2015, including 500 on-street points, 2,000 in public car parks, and 22,500 through businesses. This would include a mix of slow charging points for long stays and 50 fast charging points within 3 miles of each other by 2012. The goal is to make London a leader in electric vehicles in Europe.
This document discusses fleet electrification and the opportunities and challenges it presents for utilities. Some key points:
- Fleet vehicles are increasingly electrifying due to lower total cost of ownership, and this will lead to significant new electric load and demand centers requiring new infrastructure.
- Utilities should begin collaborating now with fleet managers to understand their needs and help them plan for electrification. This benefits both fleets and utilities.
- Managing electric vehicle charging can help utilities address risks to the distribution system from clustering while accelerating the benefits of fleet electrification. Utilities should start building managed charging programs.
- There are many types of fleet vehicles that are primed for electrification, including school buses, delivery vehicles, transit buses

It begins with an introduction to electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. It then discusses the topology and components of a typical plug-in electric vehicle charger, including a bidirectional DC/DC converter and AC/DC converter with controllers. Simulation results are presented showing the power flow between the PV panels, grid, and battery. The document concludes that power electronics can enable electric vehicles to charge from the grid or send power back, and that standards must be followed for vehicle-to-grid applications.
Power Electronics in Electric and Hybrid Vehicles 2014 Report by Yole Develo...Yole Developpement
A $16B market by 2023, a change of business model, and significant technical changes: how will electric and hybrid vehicles change the power electronics industry?
EV/HEV MARKET: A BURGEONING MARKET FULL OF PROMISES AND UNCERTAINTIES
Electric and hybrid vehicles have been presented as a huge market over the last few years, but in 2013 only 100K 100% electric vehicles were sold, and only 2M EV/HEV cars in total. For 2014, technological and architectural upgrades have been made and are ready to deploy, but the most important need is still to convince the end-user to change their habits and transition to an EV/HEV.
Charging infrastructure development, battery cost reduction and power density increase are pushing the EV/HEV market forward. Moreover, as the market grows and the technology develops, the price difference between EV/HEV vehicles and gas-powered vehicles will progressively shrink, thus further accelerating EV/HEV market advancement. Also, governmental restrictions on CO2 output are becoming increasingly aggressive worldwide (58mpg for the United States in 2025, and in 2020 for Europe). For all of these reasons, we expect end-users to be swayed by electric energy’s low cost and governmental incentives, making the EV/HEV market very attractive. In this report you will find a detailed analysis of markets by type, as well as an analysis of the positive and negative trends impacting the EV/HEV market.

Driving Transportation Electrification Forward - The TEINA Study byMary BrazellForth
The document summarizes a study on transportation electrification in Oregon. It found that most public electric vehicle charging stations are currently located in urban areas along major corridors and the coast. There is a need to focus on establishing charging infrastructure in both rural "charging deserts" and in urban, low-income, and communities of color to promote equitable access. The study recommends that Oregon prioritize developing a statewide electric vehicle charging strategy and updating policies to support further infrastructure buildout over the next 5 years. The goals are to rapidly deploy more charging stations, make infrastructure accessible to all, and create a convenient charging experience similar to gas stations.
1. Implement eco-driving training to reduce unnecessary idling and acceleration. This can extend electric range.
2. Increase opportunity charging by installing level 2 chargers at depots and offices to top up batteries during the day.
3. Optimize vehicle assignments to match duty cycles with electric range, such as assigning EVs to routes with overnight parking to enable bulk charging.
Maximizing the ROI of Fleet ElectrificationFleetCarma
In this webinar we discuss some of the best practices seen from our fleet partners, and cover topics such as:
- How to integrate EVs into your fleet with confidence. Ensure that the vehicles are not only capable of the job, but that they’ll also bring predictable cost savings.
- How to maximize an EV’s workload. The more electric miles that a vehicle travels, the more fuel it will offset, resulting in a greater return.
- How to optimize fleet charging. This allows you to both reduce energy costs and increase the potential workload of your EV fleet.
On September 14, 2010, the Alliance’s Policy Summit entitled “From Power Plant to Plug & Beyond: Energy Efficiency Opportunities Across the Smart Grid,” assembled global leaders in Washington, DC for a discussion on the role energy efficiency must play in successfully creating a smart grid that reaches all end-use sectors.

India case study - Future of Electric Vehicles in Road Passenger Mobility of ...IEA-ETSAP
The document discusses future scenarios for electric vehicles (EVs) in India's passenger transport sector. It presents three scenarios: Business As Usual, a National EV Policy scenario, and an EV scenario combined with a 2 degree Celsius global warming target. The National EV Policy scenario assumes policies that support EVs, while the combined scenario also includes a rising carbon price leading to decarbonization of electricity generation. The scenarios estimate EV market share, electricity demand, and impacts on air pollution and CO2 emissions through 2050. While EVs alone may not reduce emissions, the combined scenario shows EVs contributing meaningful emission reductions under a global climate target.
Dr. Praveen Kumar presented on the concept of Grid to Vehicle (G2V) power. He explained that as electric vehicles become more common, their batteries could provide power storage and generation back to the electric grid. This would allow electric vehicles to provide ancillary power services to help maintain grid stability. G2V power could benefit both vehicle owners through additional revenue and utilities by reducing costs and emissions compared to traditional peak power generation. However, integrating large numbers of electric vehicles into the grid also presents technical and regulatory challenges that would need to be addressed.

Dynamic charging of electric vehicles (EVs) allows EVs to be charged while in motion, significantly reducing battery size and cost. EVs can transport energy from distributed solar panels to buildings. Technologies for dynamic charging exist for buses and factory vehicles. Dynamic charging can help reduce transportation and power generation emissions. Current EV limitations include high costs, limited range, and long charging times. Dynamic charging requires only small batteries and prevents depletion with frequent small charges. It reduces range anxiety and enables heavier vehicles like trucks. The document discusses various dynamic charging technologies and prototypes.
Smart Charging & the ChargeTO Pilot Slides from WebinarFleetCarma
Matt Stevens from FleetCarma presents the interim results from the ChargeTO pilot project.
This project includes active curtailment (smart-charging) of 30 EV owners’ vehicles in the city of Toronto.
The presentation will be followed by a Q&A.
The document discusses various challenges and opportunities in India's electricity transmission sector. It notes challenges in transmission planning due to uncertainties in generation sources and scheduling. Construction faces issues with land acquisition, statutory clearances, and skilled labor shortages. Implementation is challenged by tight commissioning timelines. Grid security and reliability pose ongoing issues around adherence to standards, congestion management, and protection systems. A transition to a market-based system through measures like general network access could help address some issues by providing generators flexibility while empowering states in transmission development.
This document discusses vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology which allows electric vehicles to provide power to the electric grid during periods when they are parked and connected to the grid. V2G technology integrates electric vehicles into the smart grid and allows them to provide services like frequency regulation. It describes how V2G works by establishing communication between vehicles and charging stations that can then form a "virtual storage network" to provide balancing services to the electric grid. V2G provides benefits like improving power quality and reducing electric bills but requires standards and legislation to fully integrate electric vehicles into grid operations.
Jared Kearby - Power Technology Research cwiemeexpo
This document summarizes the impacts of electric vehicle adoption on automotive manufacturing. As EVs gain market share, they will significantly impact the industry by reducing the number of components needed in vehicles. This will decrease demand for machine tools used to produce internal combustion engine parts but increase demand for tools producing EV components. Automotive machine tool manufacturers must pursue vertical integration and investments in new revenue sources to adapt to these changes in the automotive supply chain. By 2035, components like gearboxes and engines face high risk of reduced demand due to EVs.

Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...Joshua Orris
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.
Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

3. • E-mobility: Electric Mobility
• EV: Electric Vehicles
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) definition of an EV - a vehicle propelled by an electric
motor drawing current from a rechargeable storage battery or from other portable energy storage devices
(rechargeable, using energy from a source off the vehicle such as a residential or public electric service)
Types of electric vehicles
• battery electric vehicles - BEVs, which comprise a battery, an electric motor, and power electronics to make
these operate
• plug-in hybrid electric vehicles - PHEVs, which in addition to the same motor and battery system on a BEV,
have an on-board petroleum-fuelled engine that can be used as well as, or instead of, the electric motor and
battery to provide additional power and/or additional range.
• EVs come in all shapes and sizes
passenger cars
buses
trucks
boats
motorised 2- and 3- wheelers
e-bikes & e-scooters.
INTRODUCTION TO EVs
4. KEY COMPONENTS OF EVs
BATTERY
• EV Batteries are DC while charging is from AC [converter]
• Advance in EVs = Advances in technology / Batteries:
Nissan Leaf in 2010 ran at 110 km on one charge
Latest model now have a range of 300 km or more.
PHEVs smaller battery capacity —commonly with an
all-electric range of only 40-50km — but supplemented
with a petroleum-fuelled engine
30% more efficient than comparable non-hybrid vehicles
Battery capacity of 24 kWh charging at a rate of 1.7kW
would take about 14 hrs
Nowadays there are fast charging at 50kW and ultra
rapid at 350kW
e-bikes and e-scooters are charged at as little as 2A from
a supply of 230V AC – a fraction of the draw from an
electric kettle (for comparison, a normal domestic socket
outlet is rated at 10A).
5. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
BATTERY
The availability of advanced battery technologies has
presented the market with many electric vehicle
options, from electric push scooters to large trucks:
•Larger-sized electric push-scooters
•E-bikes
•e-Two-wheelers
•Motorised tricycles
•electric passenger cars
6. KEY COMPONENTS OF EVS
BATTERY
• EV batteries are increasingly similar to RE batteries
• When EV batteries are depleted beyond the point at
which it can offer useful range, it will commonly be
re-purposed as an electricity supply storage battery
and enjoy a “second life” in this role
7. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
BATTERY
electric trucks
• is still emerging
Electric bus
• technology is more advanced than for trucks
• due to the impetus provided by the Chinese market. The availability of ultra-fast charging means that
individual buses can get away with smaller onboard batteries, which means
• projects involving multiple buses / bus fleets are less expensive compared to projects involving small
numbers of buses - costly on a per-bus basis
• which means this technology would only be viable for the largest of cities of PoM, Suva, Honiara and Port
Vila, etc.
• any such project would need to be heavily subsidised in its early years.
marine vessels
• does not appear financially attractive apart from small, slow-speed vessels operating in close, inshore
waters
• an opportunity to retrofit small fishing vessels with electric propulsion and to charge these using simple,
low-voltage solar generation systems.
• small vessels used to ferry tourists could also be electrified.
8. KEY COMPONENT S OF EVs
ELECTIRC MOTORS
• electric motors can be more than 90% energy
efficient, compared with combustion engines, which
range from 10% - 30% energy efficient in typical
automotive use
• Diesel generators operate at 40% efficiency and
above as compared to vehicular diesel motors
• EVs basically transfer the load from the less efficient
diesel-powered vehicle to the more efficient diesel
power generator
• More benefits if power system in largely RE-based
and EVs are charged from a RE-based power source
• Importance of working together with the Power
Utility
9. EVs AND THE POWER UTILITIES
• Battery Charging
• balancing the provision of peak capacity with the
cost to do so.
• “smart meters” or “Time of Use” metering can offer
advantageous prices for charging at times that suit
the demand profile
10. EVs AND THE PACIFIC ISLANDS
• Heavy dependence of the region on fossil fuel
• Major fossil fuel users / GHG emissions are electricity generation and transportation
• Tonga INDC 2015
• Energy (electricity generation), transport and agriculture
• NDC Reviews and Enhancement

technology
• Availability of sufficiently matured technology for the market
• Uptake by enthusiasts – rich and famous, Ministries & Boards
• Uptake by earlier adopters
• Normalisation of the technology
• Mainstream (national scale take up)
Sector capability and capacity is required to run in parallel with the growth in
order to provide he necessary supporting systems, including:
• Maintaining safety
• Maintenance
• Charging
• First response in case of accident
19. Barriers to E-mobility
EVs are new to PICTs and there are many
barriers with associated with this “newness””
including:
• a lack of mandate to drive EV policy (opportunities
in the revisions of NDCs and Energy Roadmaps);
• a lack of supporting institutional and regulatory
framework
• LTAs deal mostly with vehicle registration while
MoI/MoT deal with roads and bridges and Police deals
with enforcing the traffic laws.
• In some countries, EVs do not fall into any of the vehicle
categories, making it difficult to register them.
• Duty is based on engine size and no regards to the fuel
type
• absence of standards is a safety hazards and could
ruin the reputation of the technology
• a lack of charging infrastructure
• a lack of technical support capability and capacity
• a general lack of awareness of EVs (& market
access).
