In the wake of the suddenly increased enthusiasm for “electromobility” in the Russian media, social networks and bureaucratic environment, Moscow authorities promised to start production of electric vehicles
Citizens who aren’t excited about electric vehicles, and those who don’t own a car and don’t plan to buy a car with a motor, might say, “Well, okay, this isn’t our business.” But none of us will be able to stand on the sidelines without paying out of pocket for the realization of the dreams of a handful of electric transport enthusiasts, hope not! Now let’s explain why this is so.
We think that up to a third of the personal transport of residents of large cities like Moscow, St. Petersburg or Krasnodar could indeed become electric in the short term. Let’s see how this will turn out following the example of Moscow. Here in the mass house of the near future, that is, about the same as those currently being built as part of the renovation of Moscow, about 1000-1200 people will live. According to the regulations in force in Russia, it is assumed that there are 350 cars for every 1,000 citizens. That is, the inhabitants of our “renovation” house will theoretically own at least 350-400 cars.
For the simplicity of the calculations, we assume these official figures: 30% of the number of cars of the residents of the house is 120-130 pieces. That’s how many “electric trains” will be in his parking lot. Their owners will charge them there daily. The battery capacity of most modern mass-electric cars ranges from 24-50 kWh. Advanced models are equipped with 80-100 kWh batteries.
For the convenience of the calculation, we assume that a typical electric car of the near future will have a “battery” of 50 kWh. In practice, the charge is rarely “sucked to zero”. Usually we are talking about the consumption of about half the capacity. Using school arithmetic, we calculate that 130 half-discharged electric vehicles need to replenish around 3250 kW of energy every day.
The current standards of electricity consumption by a city dweller say that he is entitled to a maximum of 3 kW per day. Accordingly, 1200 residents of our typical home would have only 3600 kW of energy. Based on such figures, plus 15% of the power reserve, the parameters of the electricity grids supplied to high-rise buildings are calculated.
The appearance of 130 electric cars will almost double the load on the network of our typical home – with the same 3250 kW. The electricity grid will certainly not be able to handle the transport of a total of almost 7000 kW. Attention: the general electromobilization of the inhabitants of the metropolis will make such a situation typical of all houses in the city. Existing electricity grids cannot withstand such an accident! Residents will be plagued by chronic total power outages. And city power organizations will be forced to massively reconstruct their capacities for greater consumption.
Of course, they do this at the expense of all city residents in general – sometimes significantly by raising electricity rates. Not only electric car users will have to pay, but all citizens in general – including millions of retirees, owners of cars with combustion engines and completely “horseless” citizens. About such a near future apparently awaits all of us. But whether it will please anyone other than the rosy “electric enthusiasts” is a big question.
