Abstract: (报告内容) Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), as a major component of Smart Grid technologies, can achieve high energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, spur high-technology innovation, and ensure a reliable energy supply. An ever-increasing number of PEVs will radically change the traditional views of the power and transportation industries, the social environment, and the business world. The electrification of transportation brings both opportunities and challenges to existing critical infrastructures. The successful rollout of PEVs depends highly on the affordability, availability, and quality of the associated services that our nation’s critical infrastructures (e.g., power systems, and transportation systems) can provide. There is an urgent need to accelerate the design, development, and deployment of cost-effective, reliable, and customer-friendly PEV charging infrastructures and the associated control strategies. In this talk, we will present a comprehensive overview of the planning, control, management, and economic operation aspects of grid integration of PEVs in a Smart Grid environment. More specifically, we will cover our research work on (1) the impact of grid integration of PEVs; (2) the planning, control, and economic operation of PEV charging facilities; (3) the big data application (distributed data storage and management); and (4) the proof-of-concept demonstration of transportation electrification for Smart Grid education. We will also discuss our ongoing research work and future research trends.
