Electric-drive vehicles can provide power to the electric grid when they are parked (vehicle-
to-grid power). We evaluated the economic potential of two utility-owned fleets of battery …

In transportation, Electricity plays a key role in modern dependency techniques, which
researchers are concentrating their studies on. Electric Vehicles (EVs) and industrial …

This paper presents the main operation modes for an electric vehicle (EV) battery charger
framed in smart grids and smart homes, ie, present-day and new operation modes that can …

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) has been proposed as a way to increase the adoption rate of electric
vehicles (EVs). Unidirectional V2G is especially attractive because it requires little if any …

Battery-electric vehicles and grid-connected hybrid vehicles rely on the power grid for
energy--they have to plug in to charge their batteries. With power alerts and blackouts a …

This paper proposes a novel load management solution for coordinating the charging of
multiple plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in a smart grid system. Utilities are becoming …

This paper presents an integrated control scheme for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) operation in the
distribution grid with renewable energy sources. A hierarchical framework is proposed for …

Electric vehicle (EV) numbers are expected to significantly increase in the coming years
reflecting their potential to reduce air pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions. Charging …

Concern for the environment and energy security is changing the way we think about
energy. Grid-enabled passenger vehicles, like electric vehicles (EV) and plug-in hybrid …

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) systems represent a means by which power capacity in parked
vehicles can be used to generate electricity for the grid. This paper describes the first …
