• Revolutionary green idea anyone?• REVA encounter in Bangalore• Right timing • Fundamental rethinking• Grassroot organic approach
The Rise of Electric VehiclesNo power on earth can stop an ideawho’s time has come...Victor Hugo

regulations.•The Electric Revolution is in motion and will
change the automotive landscape forever.
The Irish Case for EVs
• “ 86% of Irish commuters travel less than 50 kms daily” Current Irish Census
• Short Distances• Relative low speed• Nationwide rollout Plan • Fossil fuel dependence• Greening of grid / Carbon neutrality objectives by
2035• Utilising already generated electricity• EV’s potential in Smart Grid (V2G)• Opportunity to become a leading country in this
sector
The Irish EV Ecosphere
Targets for Ireland: • 230 K EVs and PHEVs by 2020 or 10% of all cars being electric • 6000 EVs by the end of 2012
Enabled by various stakeholders commitment:• ESB- Charging infrastructure rollout + EV purchase ( 1500 on
street charging points , 2000 domestic charging systems by end of 2011)
• Industry - OEM’S and smaller manufacturers guaranteeing supply to IRE
• Government - 5 K subsidies for first 6000 cars • SEAI - Promotion awareness, allocation of subsidies, pilot
and demonstrations.
What are the benefits to the consumer?
• Low operating costs (less than €2 per charge)• Lower running costs (tax, insurance)• Cleaner urban air – no tailpipe emissions.• Easier to drive & park• Torque and smooth response• Suited to rural and urban commuters• Low maintenance • Subsidies & Infrastructure
Industry Trends
•Decline in battery costs •Operating cost of EV’s are only 30% of the
operating cost of conventional cars.•EV adoption rates will NOT threaten stability of
electric grid •EVs are a "disruptive technology"
