“…PEV and battery implementation enable nonlinear programming of energy storage devices, maximization of market benefit, optimal generation scheduling, and daily energy loss minimization [74]. A mathematical model was proposed [75] to determine the best EV distribution that maximizes system user total income and V2G profits through daily EV charging/discharging schedules. The best distribution of quick-charging locations based on grid effects and economic benefits was reported in [76].…”

Electric vehicles (EVs) are proportionally increasing day-by-day with the inclusion of upgraded technology toward considered zero carbon emission efforts. To mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector, grid-to-vehicle (G2V) and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technologies are getting significant attention nowadays. EVs equipped with modern technology can help to stabilize the power grids through load-balancing topology during peak hours. The improvement in EVs can support the surroundings in numerous ways, such as power grid voltage and frequency regulations, harmonics distortions, accessible solar energy implemented to the grids, and peak load stabilizations. This literature review analyzes G2V and V2G impacts in more depth, namely opportunities, improvements in strategies, operation, control, issues, and new technology adoptions. This paper emphasizes the possibilities of bringing advancements in EV technology, smooth operations between grids and EVs, fast bidirectional charging and discharging scopes, control of grids and EVs structures, issues, benefits, pitfalls, challenges, and recommendations.

“…In electric CS services, one of the most significant issues to address refers to the charging tasks. Prencipe et al (2022) deal with the relocation problem of EVs by introducing the vehicle-to-grid technology that allows transferring energy from EVs to the main grid. Such a problem is then formulated via MILP, maximizing the total profit due to the requests served and due to the energy sales/purchases.…”

This paper reviews the most recent literature on the optimization of car‐sharing systems. Unlike other surveys, we do not focus on a single aspect of car‐sharing systems, but we consider a wide range of optimization problems with a global view. Our aim is threefold. First, we revise the classic decision problems arising in car‐sharing systems with conventional and electric vehicles, such as the fleet size, the station location, and the vehicle relocation. Then, we discuss some of the most recent decision problems arising in more innovative car‐sharing systems, like those with autonomous vehicles, with mixed fleets, and the multi‐modal and the time‐dependent ones. Finally, we focus on new perspectives arising in the optimization of some innovative car‐sharing services that are not yet (or little) investigated in the literature and that are worthy of attention from the operations research point of view. For each of them, we also highlight new and challenging open decision problems that deserve academic attention.

“…Additionally, there is an asymmetry of available data between fleet and grid operators, and a separation of business models, making it impossible to perform a bilevel optimization in the real-world. In [10], optimal fleet deployment also includes a vehicle-togrid capability but with minimal details on the connected grid. Furthermore, vehicle to grid capabilities in distribution grids might be a solution for the future, but the implementations are quite limited in present distribution grids [11].…”

This paper presents a residential, round-trip, mixed ownership, electric car-sharing scheme with an optimized charging schedule, expressed as a mixed integer linear programming model. Representing the given travel demand as a graph, a mixed (shared and owned cars) ownership fleet configuration, with different trip fulfillment possibilities, is determined using maximal cliques. Next, a car-to-trip allocation model for feasible trip plans, with considerations for equal car utilization and charging price, is used to generate charging profiles for the fleet. The model and the outputs can be variously integrated into existing energy system modeling frameworks. A case study, using data from a test building with a residential car-sharing fleet in Munich, demonstrates the potential of the proposed models to derive meaningful operational insights for fleet and energy system planners. 92% of the recorded trips at the test building could have been feasibly accomplished with only 60% of the available cars.
