Which vehicle?
The proposed vehicle is the Nissan Leaf which
stands for Leading, Environmentally friendly,
Affordable, Family car. The Nissan Leaf is a
five-door hatchback fully electric vehicle.
Features
This vehicle is equipped with all the features
and space which you can expect from a regular
internal combustion engine car.
On our mobility portal you will find our proposal,
specifications, pictures and useful links
on the Nissan Leaf. F.e. Apps for iPhone

• Installing charging infrastructure is expensive and requires subsidies.
• Supply Chain is new and supply, maintenance and service requires further development.
• Most charging poles have minimal capability
SITUATION
• How to deploy complementary services (outside energy supply) are necessary to make the business profitable.
• What is the potential value of equipping charging poles with telecommunications Business Models Benefits Costs
QUESTION
• Providing charging infrastructure is not profitable enough
• Charging objects are located inside city centres and could be used for facilitating wireless communication networks
COMPLICATION
Equipping EV charging poles to generate additional value

Coverage - feasibility
Complete coverage
Charging poles City Centre Amsterdam
• Backhaul: considering a partnership with a service provider for traffic backhaul
• Meshed configuration could benefit from integration with light poles to allow for additional Access Points. This would need collaboration with the City of Amsterdam. This could be combined by offering them the usage of WiFi service throughout the city.
• The charging pole does not have the ideal height for an extensive reach. An antenna should be preferably 5 meters above the ground. This improves with integration with light poles
• The power of the antenna can be boosted by combining multiple antenna’s. Challenge is to reach 600 meters.
Assumptions • 100-500 charging objects (?) • Geometrically perfect placement (?) • Ideal placement for range (?) • 500m range (?) approximately 2 poles are needed for 1 km2 coverage • 100 objects: 50 km2 • 500 objects: 392 km2
How many charging objects are located in the city center of Amsterdam?
The city center of Amsterdam covers an area of 8,04 km2

Development of Business Models, varying from a minimum Rental to
a fully Managed Service
I III IV
Minimum Service Maximum Service
I – Space rental • Service Provider rents
space in charging object
• Service Provider remains owner of the equipment in the charging point
IV – Retailer • Utility provides full
services (e2e) • Requires direct
relationship with customers
III – Wholesaler • Utility installs back
haul communications link to charging point and provides wholesale services.
II – Hosting services • Utility provides
telecommunication equipment in the charging point
• Service Provider owns communication service and customer relationship

Benefits
Off Load telephone companies
City services
Tourism
Internet providers
Business Model Structure
Exclude GPRS ( < costs)
• The opportunity to offer telephone companies that are dealing with over capacity, a WIFI-network as an “off-load” for this data.
• Providing city services, such as police, parking patrol etc., a WIFI-network that covers the entire inner city of the larger cities in the Netherlands.
• Back-up network • Main network
• Offer an interesting WIFI-package to municipalities for their tourism. They can buy scratch cards to use the WIFI internet for a certain amount of days.
• The possibility to offer internet providers a complementary service for their customers; WIFI access in city centres.

The choice of business model determines the potential benefits that
can be gained
Benefits I II III IV What How
Off-load for service providers
• Analyze whether telcos are interested in the concept of a WIFI service
• Analyze possible partnerships for the placement of WIFI systems in street furniture
• Interviews
• Interviews
City Services • Analyze whether municipalities are interested in
WIFI for the support of their city services. These can be governmental (police, parking control, ambulance, etc.) or commercial (local shops, etc.).
• Interviews at municipality
Tourism • Analyze whether municipalities are interested in
offering a WIFI service for tourism.
• Analyze the potential for a partnership with a party like BOINGO, who can provide the service for these tourists
• Interviews at municipality
• Interviews with parties like BOINGO for potential partnerships
Internet - provider • Analyze if it would be interesting to offer clients of
a certain internet provider a complementary WIFI package in the centers of larger Dutch cities.
• Interviews with internet providers
• Interviews with potential customers

Next Step Hosted Model: 1. Work with Service Providers on more detailed Business Case and
investigate their interest on collaboration. Next Step Rental Model: 1. Possibly better suited in Utility Business Model due to simple service
model and limited upfront costs. 2. Contact Service Providers to develop more detailed business Case and
investigate their interest around WiFi and 3G/4G solutions.
