Description (excerpt):
As electric vehicle markets across the globe grow and mature, the challenge to ensure the smooth and effective integration of EVs into the power grid becomes more significant. Optimized or ‘smart’ charging of electric vehicles can save money on power grids, and generates multiple benefits for users, the power system and the environment. RAP in collaboration with the International Council for Clean Transportation (ICCT) and local grid modellers conducted four case studies in key regions of the United States, Europe, India and China to estimate the economic and environmental benefits of smart EV charging.
