“…For instance, behind-the-meter (BTM) energy storage can ensure backup power, optimize the utilization of solar photovoltaics (PV), reduce electricity expenses through time-of-use (TOU) pricing schemes, and engage in peak shaving for both residential and commercial consumers [5]. Moreover, BESS has the capacity to minimize load variance [6], lower electricity costs by mitigating RES curtailment [7], and facilitate electric bus charging, ultimately reducing demand charges [8].…”

Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) offer substantial potential to enhance the electric grid through bi-directional charging technologies. In essence, BEVs, functioning as portable battery energy storage systems, play a pivotal role in enabling the seamless integration of renewable energy, grid optimization, and ancillary services. This article sets out to explore the value of BEVs equipped with Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) for grid operators, particularly in the context of alleviating congestion. This valuable service, though not accompanied by direct monetary compensation for users, holds significant promise in minimizing congestion and renewable energy curtailment. This study utilizes the Day-Ahead Locational Marginal Price (LMP) data obtained from various locations within California Independent System Operator (CAISO) to ascertain the financial benefits to BEVs located on either side of congestion at different grid nodes, across various months. Similar analysis is performed on some of the largest solar energy plants in California. Mixed-integer linear programs are used to optimize the charging/discharging decisions for the BEV for maximizing revenue from LMP arbitrage and for minimizing the congestion component of LMP. Additionally, we take into account the impact of battery degradation, quantified as a cost per kilowatt-hour ($/kWh), and integrate this factor into our assessment to understand the evolving discharging behavior of BEVs. The article compares the benefits from the BEVs towards congestion minimization for the two different optimization scenarios, discusses seasonality, and addresses the importance of adequately compensating BEV users and incentivizing them to prioritize congestion relief during specific time intervals.

“…Authors focused in their study on optimizing the heating, cooling and electricity loads for an urban neighborhood. In [14] a MILP model is developed to identify the energy storage system potential for one bus depot combined with three charging stations along the route. Their contribution was to design a battery storage system, that can mitigate the peak demands to reduce the electricity bills.…”

Owing to the immense climate changes in recent years, the city of Hamburg has decided to allow the purchase of only emission-free buses for public transportation. Meanwhile, Hamburg focuses on the implementation of electric buses. For this purpose, the two public transportation companies in Hamburg which are the Hamburger Hochbahn AG (HOCHBAHN), and the Verkehrsbetriebe Hamburg-Holstein GmbH (VHH) decided to build new charging infrastructure for electric bus depots. In addition, they started by electrifying their existing stations. This study proposes an optimal method for electrifying bus depots by
