With an increased number of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) on the roads, PEV charging infrastructure is gaining an evermore important role in simultaneously meeting the needs of drivers and those of the local distribution grid. However, the current approach to charging is not well suited to scaling with the PEV market. If PEV adoption continues, charging infrastructure will have to overcome i...

WINSmartEV is a software based plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) monitoring, control, and management system. It not only incorporates intelligence at every level so that charge scheduling can avoid grid bottlenecks, but it also multiplies the number of PEVs that can be plugged into a single circuit. This paper proposes, designs, and executes many upgrades to WINSmartEV. These upgrades include new ...

In this paper, Plug-in Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (PFCEV) is considered with dual power sources including Fuel Cell (FC) and battery Energy Storage. In order to respond to a transient power demand, usually supercapacitor energy storage device is combined with fuel cell to create a hybrid system with high energy density of fuel cell and the high power density of battery. In order to simulate the...

Energy management strategies are instrumental in the performance and economy of smart homes integrating renewable energy and energy storage. This article focuses on stochastic energy management of a smart home with PEV (plug-in electric vehicle) energy storage and photovoltaic (PV) array. It is motivated by the challenges associated with sustainable energy supplies and the local energy storage ...

Abstract In this paper we explore the factors that influence plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) buyers’ decision to lease or purchase a PEV. We estimate binary logistic regression model using survey data of 9,472 PEV owners in California, surveyed between 2015 and 2018. Several influencing versus are identified; battery vehicles (BEVs) more likely be leased over hybrid (PHEVs). Results show positiv...

plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (phev) technology shows great interest in the recent scientificliteratures. vehicle-to-grid (v2g) is a interconnection of energy storage of phevs and grid. byimplementation of v2g dependencies of the power system on small expensive conventional units canbe reduced, resulting in reduced operational cost. this paper represents an intelligent unitcommitment (uc) wi...

Plug-in electrical vehicles (PEV) are capable of both grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) power transfer. The advantages of developing V2G include an additional revenue stream for cleaner vehicles, increased stability and reliability of the electric grid, lower electric system costs, and eventually, inexpensive storage and backup for renewable electricity. Here we show how smart con...

This paper proposes an impact analysis on voltage unbalance of Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) home charging in Thailand distribution system. The voltage unbalance is calculated with the voltage unbalance factor (%VUF) according to IEC 61000-2-4: 2000-06 standards and impact assessment with the new criteria of Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) standards. The study uses distribution network ...
