  2. Revenge of the Electric cars! • Economic: Volatile Gasoline Prices • Environmental: CO2 Emissions & Global Warming • Political: Dependence on foreign oil.

  3. Figure 1.1 2010 U.S ELECTRICITY GRID MIX

  4. Economic Benefits • 70% of all USA oil consumed is used for transportation. • By 2050 there is an estimated 1.5 billion cars on the road globally compared to 750 million in 2010. • Rising middle class in China and India causing demand in passenger cars to balloon and with it the demand for oil. • Oil is limited resource and not renewable. • EV typically charges at night, when electricity is cheapest to generate.

  5. Environmental Benefits • Critical element of reaching 80% reduction in global emissions. • Over the lifetime of an EV the owner can save more than 6000 gallons of gasoline. • Reduced operating costs – No gas/No oil/No belts/No hoses • 108 mpg equivalency rating • 3¢ per mile to operate

  6. Political Benefits • According to the USA Information Administration, over 80% of cost of a gallon of gas immediately leaves the local economy. • EV’s reduces a countries dependence on foreign oil. • “Vehicle to grid”- Future technology allows vehicle to feed electricity back in to the grid, and reverse charge system.

  7. THE FUTURE IS HERE NOW • The Tesla/Panasonic - GiGi Battery Company • Cost of the battery is the primary factor behind PEVs high sticker price. • 500,000 lithium Ion Battery Packs by 2020 • Solar energy storage units • 6500+ jobs will be created • 100 Billion Dollars in local environment benefits for Nevada.

  8. Climate Change: How do we know?

  9. TO CHANGE EVERYTHING, WE NEED EVERYONE. 100+ world leaders gathered in NYC. 2646 solidarity events in 162 countries. The largest climate march in history.
