Utilization of Electric Vehicles and Their Used Batteries for Peak-Load Shifting

Utilization of Electric Vehicles and Their Used Batteries for Peak-Load Shifting

The utilization of electric vehicles (EV) and their used batteries in supporting small-scale energy management systems were studied. Both theoretical study and practical demonstration were performed to measure the feasibility of the developed system. Each five EVs and used EV batteries were used alo...
