Two fundamental societal building blocks, energy and transportation, are on the verge of upending. The rise of automated, connected, electric, and shared (ACES) transportation is rewriting long-held value chains into new business models in the emerging transportation-to-grid (T2G) platform.
In its broadest sense, the T2G platform describes the opportunities created by the electrification of transportation—from passenger vehicles to transit systems to port operations—and the electricity grid. The supporting electric charging infrastructure, along with distributed intelligent devices, software, data, and communications, adds a layer of locational flexibility (and unpredictability) that potentially unlocks value and transformative business models across the grid. Each T2G business model brings new opportunities for delivering value as well as new complexities. From utilities to automotive OEMs, market players must rethink their traditional business model approaches in energy and transportation to embrace new partners, new service offerings, and new sources of value.
This Guidehouse Insights paper explores the T2G platform and its transformative business models with a specific focus on plug-in EVs (PEVs). PEVs include plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEVs) and battery EVs (BEVs). This paper discusses four key business models—infrastructure developer, charging service provider, load orchestrator, mobility provider—that arise in the T2G platform for vehicle electrification. The global opportunities of these four business models represent an estimated $150 billion to $200 billion in annual revenue in 2028.
