Communications Technologies for EV Charging Networks: RFID, Wi-Fi, ZigBee, Ethernet, Cellular, and AMI Equipment and Services: Global Market Analysis and Forecasts
LONDON, Sept. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Charging stations for plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are proliferating at an accelerating pace worldwide. While public charging networks have been available in North America and Europe for some time, efforts to provide PEV charging infrastructure in other regions of the world are just now gaining traction or even just getting underway. These public networks—unlike privately owned residential charging stations—require communications capabilities in order to ensure that consumers are given access to power and the ability to pay. Even in cases where the site offers free charging, the charging station must be able to communicate consumption data to the site owner or network operator.
Over the next decade, the growing base of PEVs and government efforts to encourage their spread will support millions of connected charging stations, not only at public sites but also for private fleets and even at residential and workplace sites. These latter sites will eventually become points in the so-called Internet of Energy. Connectivity will enable remote control of the charging point by owners, as well as potentially enable utility-driven demand response (DR) capabilities. This fully connected scenario, however, is many years away. According to Navigant Research, global communications equipment and services associated with EV charging networks is expected to generate revenue of just over $62.8 million in 2015 and grow to more than $709.7 million in 2024.
This Navigant Research report examines the outlook for PEV and electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) infrastructure and associated communications equipment and services. The study outlines regional considerations and describes the connectivity requirements for four segments of charging sites: residential, workplace, public, and private/fleet. Global market forecasts for communications equipment and services tied to EVSE infrastructure extend through 2024. The report also examines the major categories of communications technologies employed in EVSE networks, as well as the key vendors, service providers, and utilities active in the EVSE space.
Key Questions Addressed:
How do the connectivity requirements differ between various segments of charging station installations?
How will the network needs of residential, workplace, public, and private/fleet charging stations evolve?
Which technologies and components are typically used in electric vehicle (EV) charging stations?
Where do utilities fit in EV supply equipment (EVSE) network deployments and how is that expected to change over the next decade?
How large will the market for EVSE communications equipment and services grow over the next decade?
Which technologies will dominate in this market and which are likely to lose steam?
How will innovations like the CEA-2045 plug-and-play module affect the evolution of EVSE networking?
