Public responses to an environmental transport policy in Sweden : differentiating between acceptance and support for conventional and alternative fuel vehicles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on two types of public responses to a policy, namely public acceptance and public disgust, and find that public acceptance of environmental policies can help in achieving a move towards more renewable energy.

Barriers to the wide adoption of electric vehicles: A literature review based discussion

TL;DR: In this article, a review of EV's history, an extensive summary of factors reported in literature, and our own discussion of EV as a disruptive innovation, we explore the barriers of EVs' wide adoption from multiple perspectives in hope to shed lights on the successful diffusion of EVs in the near future.

A transition to plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs): why public health professionals must care

TL;DR: By relying on vehicles that draw on power from the grid instead of directly combusting fossil fuels, a transition to PHEVs could significantly mitigate air pollution, and the morbidity and mortality associated with particle pollution, ozone and climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Does perceived technology and knowledge of maintenance influence purchase intention of BEVs

TL;DR: In this paper, an extended theory of planned behaviour has been proposed to study the factors that influence the adoption of battery electric vehicles in Indian context, and results revealed that attitude is found to be the strongest predictor.

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.
