While US automakers are working on PEVs, the US electric vehicle industry lags behind other regions—particularly Asia—in the areas of battery manufacturing, supply chain development, and raw materials production. PEV offerings have also been announced throughout Europe and Asia. The Need for “Truth in Advertising.”

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 research project has the goal of integrating electrical vehicles as mobile energy storage units in the future intelligent power grid (smart grid). This demonstration of two-way charging technology will test the practicality of distributed energy storage in car batteries for home usage, Opel said.

Fuel economy and electrical energy usage will not be combined under J1711 to make a composite efficiency metric for plug-in hybrids. Instead, fuel usage and watt-hours per mile will be stated separately, with the baseline charging assumption being one energy storage charge per day for each vehicle being tested. laboratories.

ChargePoint’s stance is bolstered by a new MIT study that suggests , in part, that electric cars that plug into the grid, could, collectively, act as a massive “virtual battery” for grid energy storage. In the power grid, supply and demand need to match exactly. MIT: Utilities and the virtual battery.

If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle. Fortunately, to improve this issue, battery makers are working towards more responsible supply chains , and have the potential for cheaper, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly energy storage in the near future.

A key thing, he said, will be to recharge the batteries at an acceptable time for the electricity grid — to “make sure people aren’t charging at the very peak, peak time,” like late afternoon when the electricity grid is already weighted down by demands like air conditioning.
