Kevala partnered with NREL, Berkeley Lab, and DOE on the groundbreaking Transportation Electrification Impacts Study (TEIS), which supports the EPA’s historic vehicle pollution standards. The study examines the infrastructure investments needed to support the anticipated adoption of electric vehicles across five diverse states: California, Oklahoma, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New York. By leveraging advanced data and modeling capabilities, the TEIS demonstrates that modest investments in charging infrastructure and grid upgrades can support increased EV adoption, avoid over 7 billion tons of carbon emissions, and provide nearly $100 billion in annual net benefits.
The TEIS offers a comprehensive, data-driven approach to understanding the infrastructure requirements for future EV adoption. It also explores strategies for load management and grid enhancements to ensure a cost-effective transition to cleaner transportation. This study is a significant step forward in achieving national decarbonization goals and demonstrates Kevala’s commitment to creating a more sustainable and resilient energy grid.
