EVs are not just a "burden” to the grid; flexible EV charging can satisfy mobility needs while also supporting the
grid and integration of renewable energy.
Vehicles are underutilized assets: Parked ~95% of the time (in United States).
•
- EV charging profiles can look significantly different if vehicles are charged at different locations or times.
•
Flexibility is secondary to mobility needs and is enabled by charging infrastructure.
