Electric Vehicles as Distributed Energy Resource (DER) Systems

Electric vehicles (EVs) are transforming power systems, o ering opportunities as distributed energy resources while presenting technical challenges like grid congestion and demand spikes. The main EV charging solutions and their impacts on the gids, together with ancillary services provision from EVs are described in this TB. New regulatory frameworks, standardization e orts, and the policy incentives that are necessary for promoting EV adoption and their sustainable grid integration are also addressed.
