The profitability of vehicle to grid for system participants - A case study from the Electricity Reliability Council of Texas

TL;DR: In this article, a model of a centralized V2G system was developed and applied to the 2015 wholesale electricity market in Texas (Houston Hub) for selling energy and capacity, and the results demonstrate that while this system is always financially profitable to the virtual power plant and the system operator gets grid services, the electric vehicles could lose money.

Optimal Electric Vehicle charging strategy for energy management in microgrids

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel approach for determining the charging profile of electric vehicles suitable for their integration into microgrids is presented, which is achieved by means of the optimal control theory, taking into account all system constraints, such as instantaneous energy productions and consumptions, rated power and capacity of EV batteries as well as their mobility habits and requirements.

Electric vehicles as a new power source for electric utilities

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.
