Summary
Project is addressing VTO’s core objective of reducing the cost of PEVs, and VTO’s specific Electrification R&D objective of understanding the potential impacts of EV charging on the nation’s electric grid – in both cases through pioneering V2G technology in heavy-duty vehicles
Overall Objectives
- Create a compelling value proposition for electric school buses based on a competitive total cost of ownership
- Advance the technical maturity of selected medium-duty electric drive components to achieve superior energy efficiency and reduce operating costs
- Enable V2G and V2B income-generating grid integration
Objectives this Period
- Advance the elements needed to enable electric school bus fleets to function as DERs that can provide active, compensated forms of grid support
- Specification and procurement of high-power bidirectional EVSEs
- Interconnection contracting for EV-based distributed energy resources (DERs)
- Metering and tariffs to support service provision on utility and RTO networks
