Abstract

For the past few years, plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) technology development has gained immense popularity. Recent studies show that if PEVs displaced half of all vehicles on the road, they would require only an 8% increase in electricity generation. Results similar to this help encourage the continuing development of PEVs. Despite this small increase in generation, uncontrolled charging, especially during on-peak summer hours, could overload the current power grid. This paper provides a narrative literature survey of the development and impact of PEVs. Subjects cover PEV industry trends, charge and discharge scenarios, and impacts on distribution systems. Some concluding remarks are summarized.
