TLDR
A review of the current literature on EVs, the electric grid, and renewable energy integration is presented in this paper, where the economic, environmental and grid impacts of EVs are reviewed.Abstract:
Electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy sources offer the potential to substantially decrease carbon emissions from both the transportation and power generation sectors of the economy. Mass adoption of EVs will have a number of impacts and benefits, including the ability to assist in the integration of renewable energy into existing electric grids. This paper reviews the current literature on EVs, the electric grid, and renewable energy integration. Key methods and assumptions of the literature are discussed. The economic, environmental and grid impacts of EVs are reviewed. Numerous studies assessing the ability of EVs to integrate renewable energy sources are assessed; the literature indicates that EVs can significantly reduce the amount of excess renewable energy produced in an electric system. Studies on wind–EV interaction are much more detailed than those on solar photovoltaics (PV) and EVs. The paper concludes with recommendations for future research.read more

Do electric vehicle incentives matter? Evidence from the 50 U.S. states
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the effectiveness of policy incentives for adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in 50 U.S. states using a rich dataset of semi-annual new EV vehicle registrations by make and model from 2010 to 2015 and state-level policy instruments that could affect new EV model registrations.

Integration of renewable energy into the transport and electricity sectors through V2G
Henrik Lund,Willett Kempton +1 more
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).

A conceptual framework for the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) implementation
Christophe Guille,George Gross +1 more
TL;DR: A proposed framework to effectively integrate the aggregated battery vehicles into the grid as distributed energy resources to act as controllable loads to levelize the demand on the system during off-peak conditions and as a generation/storage device during the day to provide capacity and energy services to the grid.
