The French electric utility (EDF) is actively engaged in a large number of major electric vehicle programs, but of these, two stand out in terms of their dimension and public impact: the La Rochelle experiment and the intensive use of some 430 electric vehicles for its own fleet. Each of these experiments has now furnished enough information for us to draw a preliminary set of conclusions. In this article the authors describe the major developments that have been made by EDV, discuss the difficulties that have been encountered and solved while designing the charging infrastructure and analyse the main information that has been gleaned from these first two experiments. They are particularly concerned with the customer acceptance of the charging posts and the way the cars are to be charged. It is particularly interesting to see the relative importance of fast charging, home charging and curb-side charging. Some of the reactions are probably dictated by charger design but the principle used for the billing of the customer must also be taken into account. They will also indicate the major developments that they intend to undertake in the near future.
