The paper investigates the role, thus the impact, that Electric drive train Ve hicles (EVs) can play on a local level and it proposes a new way of taking into account events that drive the building and, eventually, the results from a scenario. This is done by means of a MarkAI local model coupled with a static transportation model. Results show the important role of Plug in Hybrid Electric Ve hicles (PHEVs) in achieving emission reductions and highlight the need for longer-lasting batteries or distributed recharging facilities for an effective penetration of Battery Electric Ve hicles (BEVs). Moreover, they show that the additional power load, brought into the grid by EVs penetration, would lightly affect the local grid.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
