In this study, Dr. Ulrich Decher published on EV World takes into account the main points of the use of electric vehicles under three chapters.
- Savings on Impact on Impact grid
- emissions
President Obama during his State of the Union of 2011 declared that we should have one million electric vehicle (EV) in the U.S. by 2015. The advantages of this release lie in reducing our dependence on foreign oil and reducing emissions. These are worthwhile objectives. This article will analyze the economic impact of using electric cars, their emissions and their impact on the electricity grid.
As an example of an electric car currently available, the Leaf was selected as the Nissan is a whole vehicle Electric.
The car has the following basic specifications: • Price $ 32,780
• 100 mile range to electric charge
• 24 kWh lithium-ion battery
Economics Working
The Leaf can be used primarily as a second car to move to use a daily commute of 50 miles. Requires a daily supplement of 12 kWh of electricity. A typical American home uses 25 kWh per day now, so this represents about a 50 percent increase in electricity consumption. Il costo di energia elettrica varia, a seconda di dove si vive, ma se usiamo un costo medio residenziale possiamo assumere 11,3 ¢ / kWh, si ottiene un costo giornaliero di 1,35 dollari, oppure un costo mensile di circa $ 40. Questo costo deve essere confrontato con il risparmio sui costi del non utilizzo della benzina. Se assumiamo che una tipica macchina equivalente a benzina è 25 miglia per gallone, e se si assume 3 dollari al gallone, si ottiene il costo mensile di 180 dollari (50 miglia / giorno x 30 giorni / mese x 3 dollari per g/25 miglia / g).
Per un esame completo della economia, dovremmo prendere in considerazione il incremental cost of the batteries. The additional expenditure will be adequately cushioned in terms of their effective life. Both the cost and duration are currently difficult to determine because the battery cost is not listed in a specification and is still on the duration of the experience is rather limited. A very rough estimate would be that the batteries cost $ 10,000 dollars and have a duration of five years. This implies that the cost of depreciation of $ 166/mese, disregarding any interest rate ($ 10000 / 60 months)
E 'also to consider that the cost of maintenance, which may be less expensive for a electric vehicle due to fewer moving parts. Thus, the cost of ownership of the electric vehicle can be more or less like owning a car with petrol.
