The effect of price-optimized charging on electric vehicle fleet emissions

Aggregation of sufficiently large electric vehicle (EV) fleets and control over their charging schedules enables aggregators to utilise the flexibility of EV charging in the Day Ahead Market. Optimising the charge scheduling of such fleets enables time-shifting of electricity demand to hours when electricity is cheaper, reducing the...

Simulating smart charging optimization for electric vehicles: A quantification and statistical analysis of the cost reduction and emission reduction potential of an aggregated Dutch EV fleet

The objective of this research is to understand what smart charging can bring business and society at large. In close collaboration with the largest fleet operator in the world and a commercial aggregator, the impact of smart charging on both cost reduction and carbon reduction was simulated for an electric vehicle (EV) fleet in 2018. The...
