Planning and Operation of Electric Vehicles in Smart Grids, Hardback Book

Planning and Operation of Electric Vehicles in Smart Grids Hardback

Edited by Mehdi Rahmani-Andebili

Part of the Green Energy and Technology series

Hardback

Description

Transportation electrification, particularly using electric vehicles (EV), has been widely suggested to mitigate global warming and energy security issues due to their economic and environmental benefits.

Environmentalists are advertising EV use, and governments are implementing financial incentives to expedite the transition from conventional vehicles to electric ones to achieve energy security and climate change mitigation goals.

At the same time, EVs are becoming more affordable as their battery prices decrease.

It has been predicted that EV sales will soon surpass gasoline and diesel vehicle sales.

Therefore, EVs will be one of the significant electricity customers in the future.

This fact hints that the uncontrolled charging and discharging of large numbers of EVs can put power systems at risk.

Hence, optimal planning and operation of EVs is not only necessary but beneficial.

This collection covers recent research advancements in the planning and operation of EVs in smart grids.

Aglobal group of researchers and scholars present innovative approaches while covering the theoretical and experimental aspects.
