Wind power integration and power system flexibility–An empirical analysis of extreme events in Germany under the new negative price regime

TL;DR: In this paper, the flexibility of the German power market with respect to the integration of an increasing share of electricity from renewable energy sources was analyzed and illustrated for the German market, and the decision of the European Energy Exchange in Leipzig to allow negative price bids is then explained.

Hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or electric—What do car buyers want?

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a survey to compare consumers' stated interest in conventional gasoline (CV), hybrid (HEV), plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and pure electric vehicles (EV) of varying designs and prices.

What are the barriers to widespread adoption of battery electric vehicles? A survey of public perception in Tianjin, China

TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper employed the structural equation model and chi-square test to explore public perception barriers to widespread adoption of BEVs in Tianjin, and found that consumer interest in BEVs is relatively low and a large proportion of the respondents have a "wait and see" attitude.

Can Protection Motivation Theory predict pro-environmental behavior? Explaining the adoption of electric vehicles in the Netherlands

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results of a questionnaire study among a large representative sample of Dutch drivers that showed that the Protection Motivation Theory is a relevant theory for modeling different indicators of full electric vehicle adoption.

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.
