Fuel cell electric vehicle-to-grid: Experimental feasibility and operational performance as balancing power plant

The world's future energy supply will include intermittent renewable sources, such as solar and wind power. To guarantee reliability of supply, fast-reacting, dispatchable and renewable back-up power plants are required. One promising alternative is parked and grid-connected hydrogen-powered fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) in "Vehicle-to...

Estimating impact of Vehicle-to-Grid operation on automotive fuel cell performance

In a future scenario electric vehicles (EV) could be operated in Vehicle to Grid (V2G) mode to support the national and renewable energy electricity grid by providing ancillary services such as peak shaving and frequency regulation. While developing financial models to price these services it is important to include the impact of Vehicle to Grid...
