Powering up: Lujack's installs electric vehicle charging station

Jennifer DeWitt The Quad-City Times | Posted: Thursday, August 11, 2011 9:06 pm |

Lujack Chevy became the first area Chevrolet dealer and Quad-City dealership to install an Electric Vehicle, or EV, charging station — a move that is firing up local leaders interested in seeing the technology expand across the Quad-Cities.

Under the glare of media cameras Thursday, Darrin Plett, a journeyman electrician with Davenport Electric Contract Co., installed a Level 2 EV charger inside the service department of Lujack Chevy.

“This is what it would look like in your garage,” Gwen Tombergs, Lujack’s marketing director, said during a news conference at the Davenport dealership. “As you can see, it takes 10 minutes to install once electric is run.”

Tombergs said the station was installed in anticipation of the arrival of the new Chevy Volt, which is expected to be on Lujack’s lots in the next couple months. The dealer also will sell the Nissan Leaf, but she said its arrival “is farther down the line.”

“Of course, we’ll have to charge our own cars, but this is also for the public’s use,” she said of the new charging station. “If you’re in town and you need to charge your car, you could come up here and charge it.”

The SPX EL-50580 Voltec charging station supplies electric energy for electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid (electric-gas vehicles), semi-static and mobile electrical units. Tombergs said an average charge with a Level 2 EV charger takes about four hours. “(A charger) also comes with the car, but with those it takes about 10 hours to charge.”

The charging station was hailed by the Quad-City chapter of the National Electrical Contractors Association, or NECA, which partnered with Lujack’s to advance the charging infrastructure. “We are excited to help lay the groundwork and facilitate bringing this technology to the Quad-City area,” said Steve Chesley, the chapter’s executive manager. “We’re just trying to get the Quad-Cities to look to the future. So many cities just sit and wait and see what other cities are doing first.”

Chesley said the Chevy Volt is the first major EV car to be hitting the market, but all the major manufacturers are expected to launch their own models by the end of 2012.

With more electric cars being introduced, the high price of gasoline and government incentives available for EV car buyers, Chesley said “This is going to be a very viable market.”

Davenport Mayor Bill Gluba also hopes to see EV charging stations installed across downtown Davenport, although plans to do so have not been finalized. “We’re a green city and we’re going to build upon that,” he said.

Among the ideas he and other city officials have been discussing informally is to install charging stations to create a revenue stream to replace the income lost when the city removed its downtown parking meters earlier this year. With the new revenue, he said “we could use it to pay off some of the bonds on the parking ramps.”

Gluba said he also is looking into the possibility of installing wind turbines along the riverfront to generate electricity to power the charging stations. “That’s the idea, whether it’s going to happen I don’t know. But my prediction is by 2015 you’re going to see a lot of electric cars around town and they’re going to need to be charged somewhere.”

Molly Arp Newell, president of EnviroNet, a Davenport environmental consulting firm, said the firm has been hired by Delta Institute to identify locations in the Quad-Cities that could be used as EV charging demonstration sites. “We’d like it to be on a brownfield site,” she said, adding that EnviroNet is looking at areas near where the public now gathers for a two- to three-hour period. “Having locations to plug the vehicles in is the key.”

She said the research is creating the groundwork for obtaining future grant funding.

Meanwhile, Chesley said NECA has been working with its contractor members for more than a year so they are prepared to install the new technology. He said about five local contractors are certified to install the chargers and even more are in the approval process.

Plett, the electrician, said an average home will be able to accommodate the power needed for an in-house EV charging station. “It draws about half (the electricity) of a dryer or an average air conditioning unit.”

The JATC offers accredited apprenticeship programs that prepare students to excel in the electrical industry and continuing education that readies experienced electricians for work on tomorrow’s systems.

Ralph Neidert, a master electrician in Virginia, Maryland, and West Virginia and assistant director at the JATC participated in the Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Training Program (EVITP) to become certified to train-the-trainers who will teach local electricians to install, commission and maintain Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE).

The EVITP’s program addresses technical requirements, safety imperatives and performance integrity of industry stakeholders. At the national level, NECA is one of those stakeholders. Rob Colgan, NECA executive director, market development emphasized that charging equipment for electric vehicles is an electrical installation and subject to the same workmanship and safety requirements as traditional electrical work.

Colgan said, “There will be company fleet vehicles and public parking lots that will need EVSE. NECA electrical contractors will be able to meet their EVSE needs, no matter how large or small the job.”

The JATC is now establishing an EVSE training lab at its Lanham, MD facility and will train additional trainers to teach licensed journeymen how to install this equipment. The JATC plans to have the much-needed training underway by June. UL estimates there will be one million electric vehicles on the road in next five years. It is widely believed that electric vehicles have the potential to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 30% in the U.S.

“Our goal is to train as many electricians in this area as possible to meet the growing demand,” said Neidert.

Northeast Utilities said Tuesday it is launching a research project to determine how plug-in electric vehicles would impact the electric grid in Connecticut.

"By year end, we expect to have a network of more than 30 charging stations in place and generating detailed meter data," said Watson Collins, electric vehicle project manager for NU. "We'll have a robust picture of away-from-home charging levels, to study along with home-based use as more EV [electric vehicle] drivers recharge overnight."

About 20 towns and businesses served by Connecticut Light & Power, which is owned by NU, are expected to participate in the project. Among the businesses and municipalities that have already signed on to install EV charging stations are UBS in Stamford and the towns of Torrington, Westport and Mansfield. West Hartford is expected to join the project shortly. Currently, there are about 70 electric vehicles registered in the state.

"By gathering information from municipal and business customers, we can gain tangible experience to help guide future decisions about our infrastructure, our policies and how we will ultimately serve all of our customers as EVs become more common," said Jeff Butler, CL&P's president and chief operating officer.

Ulysses Diversified Holdings Corporation Announces Development of Electric Vehicle Charging Station Infrastructure for ...

{"s" : "udhc.pk","k" : "a00,a50,b00,b60,c10,g00,h00,l10,p20,t10,v00","o" : "","j" : ""} Press Release Source: Ulysses Diversified Holdings Corporation On Wednesday March 30, 2011, 5:39 pm EDT

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ulysses Diversified Holdings Corporation (PINKSHEETS:UDHC.pk - News) announced today they have received the contract to install electric car charging stations throughout the Chicago area. This project is among the first and largest of its kind in the United States and Chicago is an ideal area to utilize electric vehicles considering almost 90 percent of all area commutes are less than 40 miles. Most fully electric cars can go up to 100 miles on a full charge. The charging stations will be able to fully charge an electric vehicle in a little under 30 minutes and there are even plans for some solar charging stations.

Through an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grant, the City of Chicago awarded a $1.9 million contract to the California firm to install and maintain 280 electric vehicle charging stations in Chicago and its surrounding suburbs by the end of 2011. 350Green will install, own and operate 73 charging locations. The stations will be located at O’Hare and Midway airports, at grocery stores, national retail chains, on tollway plazas and in parking garages. The total project will cost $8.77 million, which 350Green will provide up-front. It will later be reimbursed $1.9 million from grant funds.

“This project will encourage greater use of electric vehicles in one of the most heavily traveled cities in the country. We know there are a dozen electric vehicles scheduled for the Chicago market within the next 12 months and we think it is exceptionally prudent that we have the needed infrastructure for what we know is coming,” said Jean Howe, President and Chief Executive Officer. “With new government incentives and the soaring fuel prices electric vehicle use will become more apparent and we are helping facilitate the U.S. transition to gas free vehicles.”

International company to partner with KU for first electric vehicle charging station in Lawrence

Kansas University has forged a partnership with an international energy management company to bring the first electric vehicle charging station to Lawrence.

This spring, architectural students are building a facility that will house the Center for Design Research on KU’s West Campus at the Chamney Farm property. The facility will focus on developing innovative green technology, including solar energy, wind turbines and an electric vehicle charging station.

KU has decided to partner with Schneider Electric, a global specialist in energy management with operations in more than 100 countries, according to the company’s website.

“It is significant for the state and the electric-vehicle industry,” said Greg Thomas, a KU design professor with the Center for Design Research.

Before selecting Schneider, KU developed a matrix to evaluate companies in the energy-management industry. They were particularly impressed with the company’s electric charger, Thomas said.

The charging station, which will look like a gasoline pump, will have two cords so two vehicles will be charged at the same time. One of those chords will be able to fully power a car much faster than the eight hours it typically takes, Thomas said.

Along with boosting the electric-car market by providing a place for owners to charge vehicles, the charging station will allow for KU to research how to store energy and possibly sell it back to energy companies.

Schneider also will provide an energy management system that will integrate how much energy the wind turbines and solar panels are producing and how much energy is being used. The center will have someone from KU’s Information and Telecommunication Technology Center working to make sure all the different energy sources can communicate with one another.

The building will also be outfitted with Westar’s smart meter, which will connect to the smart grid and give detailed information on energy usage.

Thomas hopes that the partnership with Schneider will encourage other companies to team up with KU for green technology research.

“It’s nice to have them as a pace car,” Thomas said of Schneider.
