Özet
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology is a transformative solution aimed at enhancing the sustainability and resilience of electric grid infrastructure. This paper provides a review of V2G technology on its technical, economic, and environmental aspects. The paper explains the integration of renewable energy, V2G's potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and its role in improving grid stability through ancillary services. The study discusses the limitations of technical requirements concerned with battery degradation, communication protocols, and cybersecurity associated with grid connectivity. The paper further highlights the economic opportunities of V2G covering the market trends, policies, and regulations that can support widespread adoption. Additionally, implemented V2G cases are analyzed to explore the potential emerging technologies that could address the barriers to V2G large-scale deployments. We also present the major pitfalls that can stand in the way of utilizing electric vehicles (EVs) as dynamic and distributed energy resources (DERs) to serve the future.
