A recent paper published by the California Energy Commission'
<br /> analyzes the plug-in electric vehicle charging infrastructure needed
<br /> to achieve California's goal of 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles
<br /> (approximately 5% of vehicles) by 2025. The report estimates that
<br /> in California, electric vehicles could add more than 1 GW of peak
<br /> demand by 2025. Even though California has more than five times
<br /> the number of vehicles on the road compared to Minnesota, the
<br /> paper still demonstrates the significant increase in energy
<br /> requirements that could occur once electric vehicles penetrate a
<br /> market.
<br /> MMPA recognizes the potential increase in energy requirements
<br /> over the long term from electric and hybrid vehicles. However, this
<br /> IRP assumes no increase in MMPA's electric load from electric
<br /> vehicles, since in Minnesota and MMPA communities, this
<br /> technology currently has a low penetration and its future penetration
<br /> is unknown.
