Paper - Optimum Load Shaping: Charging Electric Vehicles and Batteries with Renewable Energy Sources

Optimum Load Shaping: Charging Electric Vehicles and Batteries with Renewable Energy Sources (2021)

By Frank Sandoval, Pajarito Technologies LLC; Dr. Robert F. Cruickshank III & Laurie Asperas Valayer, GRIDIoT® by RCA

Traditionally, electric utilities forecast electricity consumption, aka load, and then generate enough power to supply demand at any point in time. But the world is changing, and this model is becoming tenuous at best, and perhaps will be wholly insufficient to meet our needs for low cost reliable power. The grid is aging and becoming less reliable as evidenced by recent years’ California wildfires and the February 2021 Texas Power Crisis. As the need to reduce carbon emissions is becoming more urgent, significant amounts of distributed power generation from solar and wind are coming online, and demand is increasing with the penetration of electric vehicles (EVs).
