Emerging Topics in Energy Systems Integration: Vehicle Electrification

Matteo Muratori, Joshua Eichman

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

From an energy perspective, transportation is the least diversified demand sector, and offers numerous untapped opportunities for electrification over the next decades. While petroleum is still the major fuel used in transportation, adoption of electric vehicles in the light-duty vehicle market is increasing and electrification of other sub-sectors is gaining more interest. Vehicle electrification is creating new connections between the transportation and the electric sectors and coordinated charging is the greatest near-term opportunity for synergistic integration of electric vehicles in the power system and exploit vehicle flexibility to support grid operation.
