Plug-in electric vehicles as storage devices within an Autonomous power system. Optimization issue
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of incorporating plug-in electric vehicles within an Autonomous Power Electric Systems (APS) by modeling the dynamic decisions executed for the EMS and by formulating an optimization problem where the type and size of the diverse generation plants were known and the penetration level of plug-ins electric vehicles was determined.

The case for Bi-directional charging of electric vehicles in low voltage distribution networks
TL;DR: This paper investigates the costs and benefits to the distribution network that bi-directional charging provides, relative to uni- Directional charging, and quantified in terms of the reduction in the peak demand of the network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cost compensation method for PEVs participating in dynamic economic dispatch based on carbon trading mechanism
TL;DR: In this paper , a dynamic mechanism for compensating battery degradation cost with carbon trading revenue was proposed to increase the motivation of vehicle owners to participate in microgrid dispatch, which will maximize the energy saving and emission reduction benefits of PEVs.

Integration of electric drive vehicles in the Danish electricity network with high wind power penetration
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the feasibility of integrating electric drive vehicles (EDVs) in the Danish electricity network which is characterised by high wind power penetration, and examined the effect of EDVs on the generation capacity constraints, load curve, cross border transmission capacity and the type of generating sources (renewable/conventional) which are likely to fuel these cars.

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.
