Ancillary services and energy management for electric vehicle : mini-review

الملخص EN

The Vehicle-To-Grid (V2G) technology refers to the use of Electric Vehicles (EVs) as a source of energy storage for the grid by providing several services.

Ancillary services refer to the additional services that EVs connected to the grid can provide, such as frequency regulation and voltage control, and Renewable Energy (RE) exploitation.

There are several different charging topologies that can be used for V2G, including bidirectional charging, where the EV can have dual functionality (charge and discharge energy), and unidirectional charging that presents the operation of the EV that can only charge from the grid.

The most popular charging topologies for V2G are currently AC charging and DC fast charging.
