Session Description:

In an increasingly electrified world it is important to understand the behavior of new load demand on the grid. In this presentation, Alabama Power Company will present its collaboration with E Source to understand and predict the probability of a household having a level 2 EV charger.

A secondary objective was to identify and quantify the typical forms of L2 charging behavior within Alabama Power’s service territory.
