TLDR
In this article, the authors explore both the promise and the possible pitfalls of the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) concept, focusing first on its definition and then on its technical state-of-the-art.

Application of DSTATCOM for surplus power circulation in MV and LV distribution networks with single-phase distributed energy resources

TL;DR: In this article, the possibility of using a Distribution Static Compensator (DSTATCOM) to circulate the excess generation in one phase to the phases with higher load demand was explored to facilitate a set of balanced phase power flow from the upstream side.

The history and politics of energy transitions: Comparing contested views and finding common ground

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that there have been many transitions at varying scales that have occurred quite quickly, that is, between a few years and a decade or so, or within a single generation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multiple target sound quality balance for hybrid electric powertrain noise

TL;DR: In this paper, a framework for enhancing the sound quality (SQ) of the hybrid electric powertrain noise perceived inside the passenger compartment is presented, which enables the NVH specialist to actively implement the amplitude balance of the tones that better fits into the auditory expectations.

Plug-In Electric Vehicles: A Case Study of Seven Markets

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide insights into the developing plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) markets in Norway, Netherlands, California, United States, France, Japan, and Germany.
Journal ArticleDOI

Can Electric Vehicles Deliver Energy and Carbon Reductions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that comparing EVs and ICEVs is much more complex than generally recognised and that uncertainty occurs in both primary energy use and greenhouse gas emission calculations, and that it may not be legitimate to evaluate these terms on a simple vehicle-km basis because of spillover effects.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
