Electric vehicle (EV) technology has revolutionized the transportation sector in the last few decades. The adoption of EVs, along with the advancement of smart grid technologies and Renewable Energy Sources (RES), has introduced new concepts in the automobile and power industries. Vehicle-Grid Integration (VGI) or Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) is a technology revolutionizing both the transport and electric power sectors. From a V2G perspective, these sectors are complementary and mutually beneficial. For the power sector, mitigation of voltage and frequency excursions and the prospect of grid stabilization on the brink of uncertainties owing to the dynamics in the grid scenario are very important. This article focuses on various aspects of EV-power grid integration. The tremendous benefits of this technology, as presented in the literature, are reviewed. Furthermore, the concerns and the implementation challenges are reviewed in detail in this work.

Owing to the constantly rising energy demand, Internal Combustion Engine (ICE)-equipped vehicles are being replaced by Electric Vehicles (EVs). The other advantage of using EVs is that the batteries can be utilised as an energy storage device to increase the penetration of renewable energy sources. Integrating EVs with the grid is one of the recent advancements in EVs using Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology. A bidirectional technique enables power transfer between the grid and the EV batteries. Moreover, the Bidirectional Wireless Power Transfer (BWPT) method can support consumers in automating the power transfer process without human intervention. However, an effective BWPT requires a proper vehicle and grid coordination with reasonable control and compensation networks. Various compensation techniques have been proposed in the literature, both on the transmitter and receiver sides. Selecting suitable compensation techniques is a critical task affecting the various design parameters. In this study, the basic compensation topologies of the Series–Series (SS), Series–Parallel (SP), Parallel–Parallel (PP), Parallel–Series (SP), and hybrid compensation topology design requirements are investigated. In addition, the typical control techniques for bidirectional converters, such as Proportional–Integral–Derivative (PID), sliding mode, fuzzy logic control, model predictive, and digital control, are discussed. In addition, different switching modulation schemes, including Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) control, PWM + Phase Shift control, Single-Phase Shift, Dual-Phase Shift, and Triple-Phase Shift methods, are discussed. The characteristics and control strategies of each are presented, concerning the typical applications. Based on the review analysis, the low-power (Level 1/Level 2) charging applications demand a simple SS compensation topology with a PID controller and a Single-Phase Shift switching method. However, for the medium- or high-power applications (Level 3/Level 4), the dual-side LCC compensation with an advanced controller and a Dual-Side Phase-Shift switching pattern is recommended.

“…Another interesting application of blockchain is evolving in the electric vehicle (EV) sector. The recent revolution of the EVs will introduce new challenges for utility operators in terms of load management and planning as un‐coordinated charging of these vehicles will result in a severe problem in terms of grid stability (overload, voltage and frequency problem) [29]. However, with the help of blockchain technology, the authors in [30] proposed an adaptive EV integration scheme that will help to reduce the charging costs and power fluctuations with the execution of smart contracts.…”

Large penetration of various types of distributed energy resources and new requirements in electricity markets, have facilitated creation of sophisticated distributed energy resource aggregation systems for providing grid services. Aggregators such as Virtual Power Plants enable participation of small‐ and medium‐scale distributed energy resources in electricity markets, interacting with grid operators to collectively provide ancillary power and energy services. These interactions between grid operator, Virtual Power Plants operator and distributed energy resources are complex both in terms of contractual agreements and provision of services. On all layers, accurate tracking of distributed energy resource usage and execution of contracts is required for establishing trust between transacting participants. Digitalisation and automation of processes such as control of distributed energy resources, verification and payouts for services will add value for solving complexity of dealing with multiple parties in a Virtual Power Plants aggregation model. The authors present a blockchain‐integrated Virtual Power Plants system that enables full automation of distributed energy resource controls through smart contracts, digital trust between participants and immediate payouts for services. Effectiveness of the developed blockchain mechanism is demonstrated on a pilot Virtual Power Plants system comprising distributed energy storage systems, renewables, EV charging stations and loads with a total size of 1.8 MWs. Additionally, we propose a new mechanism for managing renewable energy curtailments through blockchain.
