The Role of the Electric Vehicle in Smart Homes: Assessment and Future Perspectives

Abstract: The wide spreading of electric mobility is imposing the application of new technologies of hardware and software for supporting new operation paradigms, not only in the perspective of improving smart grids, but also each time more in the perspective of boosting the preponderance of smart homes. Concretely, nowadays it is clear that the emergent technologies for smart homes, targeting power quality and a more efficient power management, are also altering the conventional electrical power grids toward smart grid… Show more

“…One of the key elements to the success of the massive assimilation of EVs is the efficient and flexible EV charging technologies. EVs can be plugged-in, e.g., through on-board and off-board chargers, and wireless chargers (inductive wireless power chargers) [19]. Under the smart grid paradigm, EV chargers must be able to operate considering different operating modes, which can allow a controlled bidirectional flow of active and reactive power.…”

“…A closer look at key EV technologies, including operation and control algorithms for grid interoperability, can be found in [26]. To this end, the EV-OBC must operate under different modes, such as [19]: (i) Grid-to-vehicle (G2V) mode, which allows control active power from the grid to the EV batteries (with power management by the user or grid); (ii) Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) mode, in which is delivered active power to the grid (partially discharging the batteries), according to grid requirements and EV user interest; (iii) Home-to-vehicle (H2V) mode, which allows to control the EV current according to the total current at home, both during the charging and discharging processes; (iv) Vehicle-for-grid mode (V4G), which allows, in the perspective of the grid, to control the active / reactive power, and that can include also the operation as an active power filter, allowing the EV to compensate current harmonics of other electrical appliances; and (v) Vehicle-to-home (V2H) mode, where the EV operates as a voltage source, as an off-line UPS for smart homes. On-board and off-board EV chargers were developed, considering such characteristics.…”
