TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Who can recharge a plug-in electric vehicle at home? JO - Transportation research part D: transport and environment A1 - Axsen, Jonn A1 - Kurani, Kenneth S. SP - 349 EP - 353 VL - 17 IS - 5 N2 - We construct consumer-informed estimates of residential access to vehicle charging to guide understanding of plug-in electric vehicle demand, use, and energy impacts. Using a web-based survey, study 1 estimates that about half of new car-buying US households park at least one vehicle within 25 ft of a Level 1 (110/120 V) electrical outlet at home. Study 2 estimates that just under one-third of new car-buying households in San Diego County have access to Level 2 (220/240 V) charging. Further, 20% of the sample are both able and willing to install Level 2 PEV recharging infrastructure at the prices examined.
