Elizabeth Cook, PhD and others to speak at a Electric Vehicle (EV) Technical Breakout Session, on Tuesday, April 11, 2023

Attend the Electric vehicle (EV) Technical Breakout Session: “Transactive Based EV-fleet G2V and V2G Management.” Meet highly esteemed EV colleagues at these panel, and learn more about EV charging infrastructure and distributed generation, as they relate to the Transactive Energy platform.

Transactive Based EV-fleet G2V and V2G Management

  • Room: 5B
  • Session Number: PL54

Tuesday, April 11, 2023: 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM

Description

With increasing numbers of EV-fleet to the transportation system in metropolitan cities, the power distribution grid should be upgraded as well to keep up with the EV-fleet charge demand at different grid nodes/buses and different times of a day. The power distribution grid upgrades are costly and timely. Therefore, short-term and mid-term solutions for EV-fleet charge management should be in place. Transactive based EV-fleet charge and discharge management with price incentives to charge during off-peak hours and discharge during on-peak hours is feasible and practical. In this interactive panel we will discuss about hardware and software implementation of Transactive based EV-fleet management with real case studies in north America.

About IEEE, the world’s largest technical professional organization

IEEE is the world’s largest technical professional organization dedicated to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity. IEEE and its members inspire a global community through its highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and professional and educational activities.

IEEE, pronounced “Eye-triple-E,” stands for the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The organization is chartered under this name and it is the full legal name.

However, as the world’s largest technical professional organization, IEEE’s membership has long been composed of engineers, scientists, and allied professionals. These include computer scientists, software developers, information technology professionals, physicists, medical doctors, and many others in addition to IEEE’s electrical and electronics engineering core. For this reason the organization no longer goes by the full name, except on legal business documents, and is referred to simply as IEEE.

About IEEE PES: More Power to the Future

IEEE Power & Energy Society is the leading non-profit organization, driven by volunteers worldwide with a mission to be the leading provider of scientific and engineering information on electric power and energy for the betterment of society.
