As a good solution to the shortage and environmental unfriendliness of fossil fuels, plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) attract much interests of the public. To investigate the problems caused by the integration of numerous PEVs, a lot of research work has been done on the grid impacts of PEVs in aspects including thermal loading, voltage regulation, transformer loss of life, unbalance, losses, and harmonic distortion levels. This paper surveys the-stateof-the-art of the research in this area and outline three possible measures for a power grid company to make full use of PEVs. Keywords-plug-in electric vehicle; plug-in hybrid electric vehicle; distribution networkI.

“…Several EV models have been recently developed commercially, and are designed to charge from grid energy. More recently, apart from charging applications, it has been proposed that EVs could also provide back-up power to grid, using the on-board battery, in the form of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) power flow [1]- [5]. V2G connection has acquired much attention and interest amongst power system engineers and numerous business models have been proposed.…”

Transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is already under way. EVs are equipped with a drive train that is completely electric powered, with a fairly large on-board battery pack. More recently, EVs have been looked at as distributed sources of energy, whereby they could back up the power grid during critical high demand periods. With the help of an on-board battery pack, EVs can act as distributed generators and feedback energy to the AC grid. However, efficiency of energy conversion could become an issue in this power flow. Hence, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) power flow requires a detailed stage-bystage efficiency analysis, to evaluate practical feasibility. This paper aims at introducing some of the issues in connecting battery-powered EVs to the electricity grid. The paper highlights few of the inefficiencies of V2G connection, especially from the point of view of power electronics converter energy conversion stages, and suggests some research directions for the near future, in order to possibly make V2G a practical reality.

“…The most important challenge in applying electric vehicles is their effect on the power grid, which has been the subject of numerous studies. [1][2][3] Most of the researches have investigated how electric vehicles interact with the power grid which is known as V2G. [4][5][6] Taking into account the small capacity of batteries in electric vehicles, communicative problems of each vehicle with power grid operator and the need for a unified management system for vehicles, the only strategy to interact vehicles with the power grid is the formation of a unit called electric vehicles aggregator in the power grid.…”

Electric vehicles aggregator is in fact an intermediate between electric vehicle (EV) and operator of power grid. The EVs aggregator is responsible for the management of EVs in order to supply the owners with their orders and also for maximizing the profits of power grid in electricity market. In this study, a model was developed for the operation of EVs aggregator in the reserve services market of distribution network. In the proposed model, the reserve services market was formed after termination of the energy market. In this paper, the markets were created 24 h earlier. Pricing in the energy market and reserve services was implemented based on game theory according to the price in ISO market. Meanwhile, genetic algorithm was utilized for optimization of the proposed model. V C 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
