Valuation of electric vehicle batteries in vehicle-to-grid and battery-to-grid systems
TL;DR: A dynamic model is used to evaluate three competing approaches of using EV batteries for grid applications, also known as vehicle-to-grid (V2G), and finds that none of the approaches is likely to be implemented on a large scale as the anticipated revenues barely (if at all) offset the additional costs incurred by the corresponding applications.

Dynamic electricity pricing for electric vehicles using stochastic programming
TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic model for day-ahead energy resource scheduling, integrated with the dynamic electricity pricing for EVs, is presented to address the challenges brought by the demand and renewable sources uncertainty.

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.
