Two Major Policies Set to Dominate

• Alternative Fuels Infrastruct Direct
   – Minimum coverage across Ireland by
     2025 of Alternative Fuelling Infrastructure:
      • Electric Vehicles
      • CNG and LNG
   – Common Standards across EU
   – Consumer Information

• Fuel Quality Directive Amendment
   – Transport Fuel Suppliers must reduce
     GHG content by 6% by 2020 wrt 2010
   – Any combination which delivers lower
     GHG – RE, Natural Gas, H2 etc
Declan Meally Head of Department - Emerging Sectors - www.seai.ie
Reaction in Europe

• Many blame Diesel for rising
  Smog/Air Quality problems

• Cities begin banning Diesel cars –
  Paris, Madrid e.g.

• Health issues recognised

• Several Countries have already
  adopt Zero Emission Vehicle
  policies in 2025 to 2035 time frame
Declan Meally Head of Department - Emerging Sectors - www.seai.ie
Green House Gas v Toxic Emissions

• Passenger Cars
   – New test cycle WLTP &
   – Real World Driving Emissions
   – CO2 - regulated at EU Level
   – Toxics - Euro Standard
• Heavy Goods Vehicles
   – CO2 - CO2 regulations ??
   – Toxics – Euro Standard g/kWh of
     energy
• ICEs deteriorate in service –
  consideration of standards here?

Cost Comparison Tools – A Solution?

•   Typically include information on:
     – Upfront and energy costs
     – Range capabilities
     – Charging infrastructure
     – Grant availability
     – Emissions
     – Tax

     24   www.seai.ie
EV Explorer

•   Visually salient personalised
    information.
•   Journey specific information
    computes annual energy costs
    for the user.
•   Also indicates range
    capabilities.

    25   www.seai.ie
Proof of Concept
•        Energy Show & Ideal Home Show
•        Simple before/after design
•        Intention to invest before and after viewing output from EV
         Explorer.

    26     www.seai.ie
Randomised Controlled Trial

•    Sample recruited via Amazon Mechanical Turk
•    Three-armed RCT

27   www.seai.ie
Post Comparison Tool Questions

•    Intention to invest
       – When you are purchasing your next vehicle, how likely is it that you will invest in
         a fully electric vehicle?

•    Extent to which energy costs would encourage future investment
      – Would the running cost associated with a fully electric vehicle encourage or
         discourage you from purchasing one when you are purchasing your next
         vehicle?

•    Range anxiety
      – I am more concerned about the range of an electric vehicle than I would
        be about a conventional vehicle with an internal combustion engine
      – While driving an electric vehicle, I would often be worried about range.

Intention to Invest

•    Both tools provide the same typologies of information
•    Both tools provide the same ‘take home’ message:
      – EVs are cheaper to run.
      – EV range is adequate for most commutes.

•    EV Explorer frames information in a personalised and visually salient format.

•    Cost calculator tools may be effective for changing investment intent when
     information is appropriately framed.

•    Similar effects in other domains observed by BIT (2013) with personalised letters
     (charitable donations) and with Haynes et al (2013) with personalised text messages
     (court fine payments).

Range Anxiety

•    No significant difference observed
     across conditions

•    Range meter unnoticeable?

•    Other ways of depicting range?
      – E.g. Go Ultra Low

Settlement Type

       •    Rural dwellers have lower intention to invest and greater range anxiety but are more
            encouraged to invest in an EV based on energy costs
       •    Is there an n-shaped relationship between commute distance?

                                                                Encouraged by savings in running costs
