Two households with PV systems and electric vehicles sharing a battery and connected to the grid. What are the advantages?
This model prototypes the working of an Smart Grid with Electric Vehicles
The objective is testing the theoretical advantages of batteries (also batteries in Electric Vehicles) in combination with renewable energies. The model considers two houses, that store energy both in Electric Vehicles (Vehicle to Grid), and in a communal battery.
Except when specified otherwise, the units of all variables are expressed in W/h.
