Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing electric vehicle sustainability through battery life optimal charging
TL;DR: The battery degradation aware charging heuristics can be easily derived and applied in real-world settings and find that for decreasing temperatures the trade-off between battery life and flexibility is solved with increasing range buffers.
Journal ArticleDOI
A rule-based approach for determining the plausible universe of electric vehicle buyers in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a rule-based screening methodology where alternatives are eliminated from the consumer's choice set using simple non-compensatory rules to obtain a choice set that is closer to the real consumers' choice set based on his socioeconomic traits and mobility patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
A dynamic programming model of energy storage and transformer deployments to relieve distribution constraints
Xiaomin Xi,Ramteen Sioshansi +1 more
TL;DR: A stochastic dynamic programming model that co-optimizes multiple uses of distributed energy storage, including energy and ancillary service sales, backup capacity, and transformer loading relief, while accounting for market and system uncertainty is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of energy capture by vehicle solar roofs in conjunction with workplace plug-in charging
TL;DR: It is found that regular commuters who make use of level-2 workplace charging could experience a loss of more than 75% of the potentially available photovoltaic output from roof-installed solar on their vehicles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of Electric Vehicles as Distributed Energy Storage in Isolated Systems: The Case of Tenerife
Alfredo Ramírez Díaz,Francisco Javier Ramos-Real,Gustavo A. Marrero,Yannick Perez,Yannick Perez,Yannick Perez +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the option of coupling an electric vehicle fleet as a distributed energy storage system to increase the participation of renewables in an isolated power system, i.e., Tenerife Island.

Using fleets of electric-drive vehicles for grid support
Jasna Tomić,Willett Kempton +1 more
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
Electric vehicles as a new power source for electric utilities
Willett Kempton,Steven Letendre +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed vehicle battery storage in greatest detail, comparing three electric vehicle configurations over a range of driving requirements and electric utility demand conditions, and found that the value to the utility of tapping vehicle electrical storage exceeds the cost of the two-way hook-up and reduced vehicle battery life.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of hydrogen, methanol and gasoline as fuels for fuel cell vehicles: implications for vehicle design and infrastructure development
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present modeling results comparing three leading options for fuel storage onboard fuel cell vehicles: (a) compressed gas hydrogen storage, (b) onboard steam reforming of methanol, (c) onboard partial oxidation (POX) of hydrocarbon fuels derived from crude oil.
Vehicle-to-Grid Power: Battery, Hybrid, and Fuel Cell Vehicles as Resources for Distributed Electric Power in California
TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculate three parameters of electric drive vehicles (EDVs) which are important for their use by the electric system: resources size, availability, and economic potential.
