EVE | Session 2 | 13 Sep 2012

The first session of presentations (Agenda item 8) focused on communication protocols to promote robust grid-EV interoperability (Mr. Oliver, EVE-02-20e), calculating EV GHG emissions (Mr. Pike, EVE-02-10e), and Li-ion EV battery life cycle assessment results (Ms. Hart, EVE-02-14e).

Comments during question periods focused on: Whether or not communications protocol should have a place in the EVE IWG and who would be the originator of the protocol. A member noted that further information on communications protocol could be found in the ANSI EVSP roadmap:

  • - How to define energy efficiency of EVs, could consider range, energy consumption, and/or size of vehicle.
  • - In the LCA of a Li-ion EV battery, the most energy intensive step was identified to be raw material extraction, making recycling of batteries attractive.
