Portions in portfolios: Understanding public preferences for electricity production using compositional survey data in the United States

TL;DR: This article examined public preferences for energy sources in electricity production as a mix of the most common sources for the energy grid and found that beliefs and knowledge about climate change are strongly associated with a higher prevalence of renewable sources in the preferred electricity mix.

Possible use of electric cars as balancing instrument

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assume one million electric cars that can be connected to the Belgian grid and use them for delivering all primary, all secondary and part of the tertiary reserves.

Vehicle-to-grid power fundamentals: Calculating capacity and net revenue

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors defined the three vehicle types that can produce V2G power and the power markets they can sell into, and developed equations to calculate the capacity for grid power from three types of electric drive vehicles.

Using fleets of electric-drive vehicles for grid support

TL;DR: In this article, the economic potential of two utility-owned fleets of battery-electric vehicles to provide power for a specific electricity market, regulation, in four US regional regulation services markets was evaluated.

Integration of renewable energy into the transport and electricity sectors through V2G

TL;DR: In this paper, two national energy systems are modelled, one for Denmark, including combined heat and power (CHP) and the other a similarly sized country without CHP (the latter being more typical of other industrialized countries).

Life cycle assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from plug-in hybrid vehicles: implications for policy.

TL;DR: Life cycle GHG emissions from PHEVs are assessed and it is found that they reduceGHG emissions by 32% compared to conventional vehicles, but have small reductions compared to traditional hybrids.

Impacts Assessment of Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles on Electric Utilities and Regional US Power Grids: Part 1: Technical Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimated the regional percentages of the energy requirements for the U.S. light duty vehicle stock that could be supported by the existing grid, based on 12 NERC regions.
