Vehicle-to-Grid Power Challenges and OpportunitiesResearch Reports InternationalOctober 1, 2008 38 Pages - SKU: RRIN2091611 |
| The objective in creating Vehicle-to-Grid Power: Challenges and Opportunities is to provide electric industry participants with the knowledge they need to begin preparing for the introduction of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. High gas prices, carbon constraints, fuel economy standards, and the desire for energy independence are driving the development of electric drive vehicles (EDVs). Rather than being a burden to the industry, millions of EDVs could be a blessing by providing important ancillary services, peaking power, and even energy storage for wind power plants. In order to be prepared to take advantage of V2G power, this report seeks to provide readers with an understanding of the potential amount of capacity and energy V2G can provide the grid, the options the industry can use to harness these capabilities, and the decisions that need to be made now to encourage V2G development and ensure that the potential of V2G is maximized. The report aims to provide the reader with a thorough understanding of V2G and its potential for positively impacting electricity markets. It also aims to provide an understanding of the technology behind V2G, as well as the issues that need to be resolved for V2G to become a commercial reality. Finally, by evaluating a number of studies, the report aims to provide readers with insight into the economics of V2G and the revenue potential of different services. |
