During the past years, a lot of research work have been done on the topic of smart grids and more specifically on the charging of electric vehicles (EVs), which will become an essential aspect in the coming years. The various works carried out on these themes have allowed the development of efficient tools to organize energy exchanges within these networks and to make this energy available to electric vehicles on certain time intervals. However, the problems related to the compatibility between the different elements of these networks seem to be largely underestimated. The collaborative work between IETR and Dropbird highlights the technological challenges that significantly hinder the deployment of relevant charging algorithms and experiments with dynamic programming-based algorithms to circumvent these obstacles.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
