Electric Vehicles in Energy Systems

This book discusses the technical, economic, and environmental aspects of electric vehicles and their impact on electrical grids and energy systems. The book is divided into three parts that include load modeling, integration and optimization, and environmental evaluation. Theoretical background and practical examples accompany each section and the authors include helpful tips and hints in the load modeling and optimization sections. This book is intended to be a useful tool for undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and engineers who are trying to solve power and engineering problems related electric vehicles.

Transportation electrification, particularly using electric vehicles (EV), has been widely suggested to mitigate global warming and energy security issues due to their economic and environmental benefits. Environmentalists are advertising EV use, and governments are implementing financial incentives to expedite the transition from conventional vehicles to electric ones to achieve energy security and climate change mitigation goals. At the same time, EVs are becoming more affordable as their battery prices decrease.

The book consists of selected and peer reviewed papers from 13th International Conference on Renewable and Clean Energy (2023), which aims to address and deliberate on the latest technical status and recent trends in the research and applications of renewable energy system and sources (RESSs), renewable energy sources include solar, wind, biomass, fuel cells, hydropower, hydrogen, nuclear, geothermal etc. The topics covered in the proceedings include energy transformation from renewable energy system (RES) to grid, novel energy conversion studies for RESs, power devices and driving circuits for RESs, control techniques for RESs, grid interactive systems used in hybrid RESs, performance analysis of RESs, hybrid RESSs, renewable energy research and applications for Industries, RESSs for electrical vehicles and components, artificial intelligence and machine learning studies for RESs and applications, computational methods for RESSs, smart grids and RESSs, safety and security of RESSs, renewable energy systems in smart cities. This book will be very useful for graduate students, researchers and practicing engineers working in the fields of renewable energy.
