Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Special Issue “Vehicle-to-Grid in Coordinated Power and Transportation Systems: Challenges and Development” focuses on exploring the intersection of electric vehicles (EVs) and charging/discharging facilities within the context of coordinated power and transportation systems. It delves into topics such as V2G communication protocols, smart charging/discharging infrastructure, energy management strategies, and policy implications, while also examining the impacts of V2G on traffic patterns, infrastructure development, and energy consumption within urban and rural environments. The scope encompasses theoretical research and practical applications related to V2G integration; we welcome contributions that explore innovative approaches to optimizing V2G systems, enhancing grid stability, and promoting sustainable transportation practices. Additionally, we invite studies addressing socio-economic factors, regulatory frameworks, and stakeholder engagement strategies to facilitate widespread adoption. The overarching purpose is to provide a platform for interdisciplinary dialogue among researchers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders, aiming to advance understanding, share insights, and collaboratively address challenges and opportunities associated with V2G technologies, ultimately catalyzing the development of resilient, efficient, and sustainable power and transportation systems for the future.
