Abstract

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) presents an opportunity to utilize their batteries as a distributed energy storage resource. This paper explores the concept of using EV batteries for energy storage and highlights the benefits, technical considerations, deployment models, challenges, and real-world examples associated with this approach. By leveraging EV batteries as a distributed energy storage resource, various advantages can be achieved, including grid stabilization, peak demand management, integration of renewable energy sources, cost savings, and environmental benefits. However, several challenges such as battery degradation, standardization, regulatory barriers, and infrastructure requirements need to be addressed for successful implementation. Case studies and real-world examples demonstrate the feasibility and potential of utilizing EV batteries for energy storage. The future outlook suggests advancements in battery technology, expansion of EV charging infrastructure, policy support, and collaborative initiatives as key drivers for widespread adoption. Continued research and development efforts in this field are crucial to unlock the full potential of using EV batteries as a distributed energy storage resource and revolutionize the energy landscape.
