Original abstract

The charging of electric vehicles (EVs) is one of the challenges in the electrification of mobility. For working-age people the workplace is where they usually spend most time out of home. The paper discusses the EV charging potential at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of Brno University of Technology, Brno, Czech Republic. The market penetration of EVs in the Czech Republic is expected to increase at a relatively slow pace, which would provide enough time for equipping the workplace parking lots with EV chargers. Charging of EVs could become an incentive for the expansion of building-integrated photovoltaics on the campus as there is a strong correlation between the working hours (when the employees park their vehicles on the campus) and the electricity generation by the photovoltaic panels.
