PDF version includes complete article with source references. Suitable for printing and offline reading.
One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by integrating Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) with EV charging stations. This innovative approach enhances grid stability, optimizes energy costs, and supports the transition to a more sustainable transportation ecosystem. Power Boost and Load Balancing
While the literature contains a wealth of review studies examining various aspects of energy storage systems (ESS) and their role in facilitating the large-scale integration of EV chargers into the power grid , no comprehensive effort has been made to consolidate these findings into a single, cohesive review.
It analyzes PEV charging and storage, showing how their charging patterns and energy storage can improve grid stability and efficiency. This review paper emphasizes the potential of V2G technology, which allows bidirectional power flow to support grid functions such as stabilization, energy balancing, and ancillary services.
Strategies for enhancing grid stability and managing peak loads in the context of EV charger integration revolve around proactive management of energy flows and demand response capabilities. Grid operators can implement predictive modelling and forecasting algorithms to anticipate charging patterns and optimize grid resources accordingly .
