THOMAS STEFFEN: SMART CHARGING AND

THE EFFICIENT MARKET Thomas Steffen

with contributions from Sagar Mody,

INTRODUCTION: THE CASE FOR SMART CHARGING

50

http://www.nist.gov/itl/antd/emntg/images/DS_and_CS_2.jpg

Electricity is a Real Time Market.

Smart Grid Provides:

• Incentives for Demand Shifting

• Reduction of Demand Spikes

In 2030, we will have 13 Million BEVs and

PHEVs on the road.

Peak demand: 8 GW

Unmanaged, this would be in the evening peak

(7pm).

Generation power with V2G: 100 GW !

But EVs will also provide 150 GWh of storage

(compared to 27GWh of pump storage).

The research for using this has been done.

Some of our examples:

Mody, S., & Steffen, T. (2015). Optimal Charging of Electric

Vehicles using a Stochastic Dynamic Programming Model and

Price Prediction. SAE International Journal of Passenger Cars -

Electronic and Electrical Systems

Mody, S., & Steffen, T. (2013). Optimal Charging of EVs in a Real

Time Pricing Electricity Market. SAE International Journal of

Alternative Powertrains

OPPORTUNITIES OF SMART CHARGINGBy Timescale

Timescale Effect Opportunity

Milliseconds Harmonics & Power Quality Excellent

MODEL 1: REGULATION

• Set minimum standards

• Enshrine collective interest

• Requirements for type approval

• Familiar mechanism

• But not without issues

• Slow & inflexible

• The customer has no benefit http://soberlook.com/2009/07/fork-in-road.html

Page 57: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

57

MODEL 2: FREE MARKET

• Real Time Prices for retail customers

• Customer stays in control

• Car or charger can respond to changing prices

• From 5 minute response time

• (Potential discounts for frequency stability)

• Does it scale?

USA is moving ahead

Page 58: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

58

MODEL 3: AGGREGATORS

• Charging of many vehicles is controlled by one aggregator company

• The aggregator acts as a “virtual power plant” on the wholesale market

• Some of the savings are paid to the customer

• The customer is not in control

59

CONCLUSION

We do not have much time.

By 2025, we need to decide on one model.

It is hard to see a compromise –and the choice is important.

Sweden will have to act sooner.

The USA are (nearly) ready.

If you have an idea, let me know.

IT’S PROBLEMATIC

We have 12 years to save the planet.

• UN IPCC 2018 Report states that Human activities are estimated to have caused approximately 1.0°C of global warming above pre-industrial levels. Global warming is likely to reach 1.5°C between 2030 and 2052 if it continues to increase at the current rate.

• Pathways limiting global warming to 1.5°C with no or limited overshoot would require rapid and far-reaching transitions in energy, land, urban and infrastructure (including transport and buildings), and industrial systems

PARADIGM SHIFT

We need to change the way we think about wireless charging solutions.

Up until now the focus has been on Transmitter efficiency.

Therefore the products are very efficient but no one buys them.

A paradigm shift is absolutely necessary.

IS WIRELESS CHARGING DOOMED?

Paradigm change needed

Page 79: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

79

PARADIGM SHIFT

• The product (wireless charging) must be:

Priced for mass adoption

More convenient than the alternative (cable)

• The charging efficiency must be reasonable and the energy should come, where possible from renewables

• The product must be resource-efficient and recyclable

TOWARDS A GREEN FUTURE NOW

Page 80: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

80

PARADIGM SHIFTAFFORDABLE AND CONVENIENT

• Lesla has developed a technology that automates frequency and phase adjustments between the charging pad and the car, which greatly reduces the need for expensive electronics.

• Combined with high frequency operation, Lesla has decreased standalone charger price levels to 500-600 GBP, which is around the same as the price of an ordinary cable charging system.

LESLA LOW COST CHARGING SYSTEM

• As only one rectifier is needed for multiple charger coils, Lesla can build large charging arrays with only a modest increase in price.

• The cell array system is self-positioning and of modular construction. The need for precise parking is no longer an issue for the drivers, they can park as they please, without worrying about how precisely over the charger they are.

PARADIGM SHIFTEFFICIENCY AND RENEWABLE ENERGY

• Use of green renewable energy for EVs is essential especially to compensate for charging efficiency

The small energy losses do not create pollution

Additional increase of EVs on the road will save millions of tons of GHG emissions

WIRELESS CHARGING AND SOLAR CAR PORTS

We are working in co-operation with Solisco on

wireless charging using solar car ports.

• Predicted 34 Million EVs by 2040 in the UK

• Each EV saves 11301 GBP during 14 year lifespan

• Possible 7% increase in purchase likelihood

• 24.8 billion GBP savings

PARADIGM SHIFTResource efficiency and recycling

• Electric vehicles are increasingly using rare-earth materials, inclusive of copper.

• The copper industry estimates the global copper use will increase by 22% because of EVs

PARADIGM SHIFTResource efficiency and recycling

• In Traditional wireless chargers the charging pad contains about 20 meters of 5mm diameter copper litz wire wound into a 65cm x 50cm rectangular coil. In total the charger uses around 8 lb of copper.

• It would mean millions of tons of copper would need to be laid into roads to provide EV charging.

USE OF MATERIALS

Page 84: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

84

PARADIGM SHIFTConclusions

• Taking into account the urgency of actions required to decrease GHG emissions in transport, it is necessary to make EVs suited for the mass market as soon as possible.

• Wireless chargers may be the way to achieving this goal.

• The uptake of wireless charging and other green technologies by the mass market is more important than getting them perfect. Let’s concentrate on getting it right first.

• The renewable source of energy is as important as the EVs themselves.

• The consumption of non renewables in the pursuit of efficiency is a short term solution at best.

PRODUCT ENGINEERING FUNDAMENTAL TO DRIVING VALUE CREATION

It is the bridging capability between science/ technology and manufacturing business/enterprise

Highly influential over markets and industrial solutions

• Choice of systems architectures, production processes and supply chain defined early in the development cycle

• Definition of regulatory framework and subsequent compliance and in-service monitoring matched in complexity

Critical to defining life-time costs and product safety

• >70% of product costs are “locked in” at the concept design stage

• Cost of in-service changes x10,000 times more than early design refinement

DIGITAL ENGINEERING

WHAT IS DIGITAL ENGINEERING?

The fusion of advanced digital technologies with best-in-class product engineering capabilities to deliver physical resource intensive processes in a digital environment.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT?

Existing engineering capabilities, based on sequential approaches and extensive physical testing, are incapable of delivering the accelerating complexities of future product. This fundamental shortfall is common across all sectors, and is driven by increasing customer, environmental and legislative demands.

Advanced engineering businesses, and their supply chains, must transform to continue to compete. Natural evolution will fall significantly short of expectation!

Nations that lead this transformation will attract investment from high-value global businesses and foster technical innovation. Those that don’t will risk losing these industries.

The loss of UK product engineering capabilities will have negative long-term implications for all industrial sectors

Page 96: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

VOICE OF INDUSTRY – SHARED CHALLENGESKnowledge Based / Autonomous Systems – With an ageing engineering work force and the new the ‘gig’ economy, OEM’s are recognising the need for robust knowledge management systems to retain and reuse their knowledge.

Customer-centric product creation systems – How can organisations use digital and immersive technology to validate their customers wants and needs earlier in the design process.

Digital Assurance– The correlation between digital models and physical prototypes has never been better, are we at a transition point where trust in the digital models can negate the need for physical proof ?

Decision Management Process – Enduring & authoritative source of truth. Multi-million pound decisions are regularly being made on poor quality inaccurate data. How can better data usage and digital visualisation be used to help?

New Business Models & Closed loop information lifecycle– How can the ‘connected car’ be used to collect and use real world usage data to drive better products and new revenue streams?

Access to the right skills/workforce – Sourcing high quality recruits into the engineering profession is a challenge. Can the use of digital technology help re-invent the profession for a future generation

ENGINEERING WITH A DIFFERENCE

“If you always do what you have always done,

you will always get what you always got”(Mark Twain/ Henry Ford & paraphrased by Albert Einstein)

Page 169: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

176

ENGINEERING WITH A DIFFERENCE

Primary Function EngineeringCase study:

-55% weight

-20% cost

27.5kgs

12 kgs

Current ‘state of the art’

Revised ‘state of the art’

And the technology exists to reduce to ~6kgs!....

Page 170: UK Automotive Industry · Future Leaders Fellowships scheme The £857m UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation

177

ENGINEERING WITH A DIFFERENCEPrimary Function EngineeringInterrogate existing design –

• What is the primary function?

• What engineering solutions can be employed to get down to just performing the primary (and any necessary

secondary) functions?

• Load path analysis – where are the loads, where do they go, what generates them? Don’t interrupt and remove

at source

• What additional functions are being performed-could they be done in other ways?

• Analogous structures that provide role models?

• Is part of the design ‘for convenience’ rather than necessary?

• Tailored processes – one size fits all; convenience

• Do interfaces need to change?

Collaborative and ingenious effort

is the key to realising the greatness businesses and their people are capable of

“Dare to Try”…..we need to be daring, not afraid of failing

“If you do something that you have done before, you aren’t thinking about it hard enough”

“If you haven’t failed it, then it’s over-engineered”
