“Smart grid supports EV and PHEV deployment through real-time pricing structures and bi-directional metering. Real-time pricing would enable customers to recharge vehicles during off-peak hours at reduced cost. The company will also use Recovery Act funding to demonstrate a prototype cable in the Long Island Power Authority power grid.

The winds had barely died down when electric-power specialists and others began calling for a radical overhaul of Puerto Rico’s electricity networks, one that would emphasize renewable energy, distributed generation, and, critically, microgrids. A microgrid is like a miniaturized, tightly controlled version of a power grid.

The average Kiwi drives just 38km per day , so an EV owner can go for at least 10 days without a recharge. Unlike petrol cars where filling up requires a trip to the petrol station, you can recharge at home or anywhere with access to electricity. Most major petrol companies have also installed EV chargers at many of their sites.

One of the biggest challenges to the nations power grid "is going to be the introduction of electric vehicles," said Dana Christiansen, associate director of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which has partnered with Nissan, TVA and the state of Tennessee to help develop the charging infrastructure to support the vehicles.

This renewable production capacity is increasingly important to ensure the existing power grid can accept more renewable sources. Myth #2: Hydrogen gas is dangerous to store and use. Of course, this also has the merit of producing so-called “green hydrogen”.

and, acting as the link, controls the flow of high-voltage power between the e-motor and the lithium-ion battery (depending on battery voltage between 296 and up to 418 V). In doing so the power electronics convert the direct current (DC) stored in the battery into alternating current (AC) and use this to drive the motor.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. In effect, cars would be acting like tiny power stations. While utilities such as E.ON
