Understanding Environmental Impacts of Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles • Environmental impacts of shifting vehicle energy supply from petroleum to electricity • Location and characteristics of vehicle and power plant emissions are different – Temporal, spatial, chemical • Electricity supplied by diverse mix of fuels and plant technologies • New technologies take time to penetrate vehicle fleet • Generation capacity and economics evolve over time – Energy pathway analyses (e.g., GREET) are insufficient to appropriately model these changes

Scope and Methodology Climate Task • Nationwide greenhouse analysis – Based on EPRI electric system model (NESSIE) • Electric sector evolves over time • Least-cost economics – Monetization of emission allowances – Capital and O&M costs of technology options • Capacity expansion and retirement • Production simulation (dispatch modeling)

• CO2 emissions in model controlled by applying a cost to emit on power plant fuel and stack emissions • Higher CO2 costs increase cost of power from higher emitting technologies • Model calculates CO2e includes CO2, N2O, and CH4 emissions from upstream fuels

PHEV Assumptions • Base vehicles derived from EPRI 2001 and 2002 consensus studies on benefits and impacts of HEVs • PHEVs available up to Class 5 vehicles (19,500 lb GVW) • Technology options include PHEV 10, 20 and 40 – No PHEV-60, no BEVs or FCVs • Vehicle assumptions coordinated with MOBILE6 and EMFAC mobile emissions databases – PHEV and HEV have same fuel economy on gasoline – PHEV electricity usage dependent on battery size, annual vehicle miles travelled (VMT) – Electric VMT (eVMT) reduces on-road emissions and gasoline consumption

Charging Fraction

• Base Case represents 74% of energy delivered from 10:00 pm to 6:00 am, 26% between 6:00am and 10:00 pm • Vehicle charged primarily, but not exclusively, at each vehicle’s “home base” • Owners incentivized or otherwise encouraged to use less expensive off-peak electricity • Charge onset delays built into near-term vehicles—allow battery system rest and cooling before recharge • Long-term with large PHEV fleets, utilities will likely use demand response or other programs to actively manage the charging load 10% 5% 0% 1
