Tóm tắt

Several assumptions were established at the start of The EV Project. One of the assumptions upon which the Project was based was that plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) drivers would require some form of charging infrastructure away from their residences. The basic need for infrastructure outside the home was assumed to be a key foundation of future EV growth. This assumption was based on surveys conducted as part of the EV Project1, on previous experience of The EV Project management team with charging infrastructure deployment and use, and on a strong desire by Nissan (which was the initial PEV partner of The EV Project), to have visible away-from-home charging infrastructure to support vehicle sales. It was assumed that PEV drivers would have range anxiety and have an expectation that charging infrastructure will be there for their use.
