▼ Nas últimas décadas, o crescimento económico-social teve um impacto significativo no consumo dos recursos naturais não renováveis, tanto no setor de transporte como no setor de energia. Este consumo, que continua a aumentar, representa uma advertência, tanto para as populações como para o planeta, principalmente, devido às alterações climáticas derivadas do aquecimento global. A resolução deste problema passa pela descarbonização do setor energético e pela eficiente utilização da energia elétrica. Como primeiro passo, um forte investimento na mobilidade elétrica, em concreto em veículos elétricos (VEs), visando alcançar uma maior competitividade a nível de preço, autonomia e tempo de carregamento é um bom ponto de partida. Todavia, o padrão da rede elétrica atual não está dimensionado para a proliferação dos VEs devido aos problemas que os carregamentos das baterias poderão acarretar ao nível da qualidade de energia elétrica.
A integração dinâmica dos sistemas de armazenamento presentes no VE com as smart grids ainda está em fase de investigação e desenvolvimento. Neste sentido, esta dissertação apresenta a validação de uma nova topologia de carregador de baterias on-board para um VE que permite diversos modos de operação no contexto de smart grids. Assim, para além do modo de operação tradicional e comercial, designado por grid-to-
vehicle (G2V), que tem como única função o carregamento das baterias do VE, esta dissertação apresenta uma nova topologia de carregador que permite desempenhar modos de operação no contexto de smart grids e smart homes, nomeadamente,
vehicle-to-grid (V2G),
home-to-
vehicle (H2V),
vehicle-to-
home (
V2H) e
vehicle-for-grid (V4G).
Com a finalidade de analisar as propostas apresentadas nesta dissertação, inicialmente foi efetuada uma contextualização histórica do VE e foram identificados os principais problemas associados. Posteriormente, foi efetuado um estudo dos principais conceitos teóricos dos conversores que podem ser empregues em sistemas de carregamento e, com recurso ao software PSIM, realizaram-se simulações computacionais da nova topologia do conversor com as respetivas teorias de controlo que validam os modelos implementados. Por fim, foram obtidos resultados experimentais nos diversos modos de operação do protótipo desenvolvido.

▼ The high demand for electricity and the consequent increase in electricity price as lead to recentstudy in reducingthe total operating cost of a residential building. This research work focuson energy management in a residential green house.Two innovative approach is proposed to solve excessiveoperating cost of a residential green house, the system inputs which consist of temperature, activity level, and energyconsumption is based on five household occupant in Atlanta, Georgia, also a Chevy volt of 16kWh is used in the case studies.Moreover, for a single residential house, the overall goal is to reduce the total operating costs and the carbon emissions for a future residential house, while satisfying the end-users’ comfort levels. This paper models a wide variety of
home appliances and formulates the economic operation problem using mixed integer linear programming. Case studies are performed to validate and demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution algorithm. Simulation results also show the positive impact of dispatchable loads, distributed renewable generators, and distributed energy storage devices on a future residential house.For networked residential houses, we present an optimization of total operating cost of an interconnected nanogrid (ING) considering the effect of
V2H andV2G, which helps tominimizethe total operating cost. The major objective is to reduce carbon emission, total operating cost and the peak load demand while satisfying the customer preferences of each nanogrid. A mixed integer linear program (MILP) is formulated to solve the economic operation of the ING. Furthermore, case studies are performed to demonstrate the positive impact INGs have on minimizing total operating cost.

▼ Les engagements étatiques relatifs au secteur du transport promouvoient lapopularisation des véhicules rechargeables conformément aux exigences actuelles qu’ellessoient environnementales, techniques ou encore économiques. Ipso facto, ces travaux dethèse, assimilés à la thématique des Smart Grids, exposent une contribution à une gestionorientée du tryptique réseaux électriques, véhicules rechargeables et secteurs résidentiels.La première étape du travail consiste en l’évaluation des impacts liés à un taux de pénétrationélevé. Les travaux se sont ensuite focalisés sur deux problèmes importants qui sont latenue du plan de tension et le vieillissement accéléré des transformateurs de distributionHTA/BT, plus particulièrement ceux alimentant des secteurs résidentiels. Partant, desstratégies de modulation de la charge des batteries embarquées sont proposées et évaluées.Dans une seconde partie, en se basant sur l’hypothèse de bidirectionnalité énergétique duvéhicule électrique hybride rechargeable (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle - PHEV), estexploré les possibilités d’effacement de pointe et de diminution des puissances souscrites ;conformément au concept Vehicle-to-Home. Les aspects économiques ne sont pas évacués ;à ce titre la minimisation de la facture énergétique d’un logement fait l’objet d’un regardparticulier sous contrainte d’une tarification variable, le V2H servant de levier. Le véhiculebidirectionnel est enfin mis à contribution via une algorithmique adaptée à des fins deréglage du plan de tension et contribue ainsi au concept Vehicle-to-Grid.
The national commitments concerning terrestrial transport are promotingrechargeable vehicles according to actual environmental, technical or economicexigencies. To this end, the contribution of this thesis, related to the Smart Grids, coverssimultaneously the fields of electric utility grids, rechargeable vehicles, and residentialareas. The first step consists in the assessment the impacts caused by a highpenetration level. The research then focuses on two major problems : the voltage plan andthe aging rate of low voltage transformer, particularly those supplying residential areas.Therefore, unidirectional Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) charging strategieshave been proposed and evaluated. In the second part, based on the bidirectional PHEV,the possibility of consumption peak shaving and decrease of subscription contracts bothunder the concept Vehicle-to-Home are explored. The economics aspects are notignored, so a particular attention is paid of energy cost minimization for a housing undervariable pricing of energy constraint. The bidirectional vehicle is finally used in an adaptedalgorithmic for voltage plan control, thus contributing to the concept Vehicle-to-Grid.

▼ Key battery, semiconductor, and software technologies have sufficiently progressed over the past few decades to enable viable plug-in electric
vehicle (PEV) alternatives to conventional vehicles. Alternatives to petroleum-based fuels for transportation are sought to address concerns over energy security, foreign oil derived U.S. trade deficits, oil related geopolitical entanglements, and emissions. The various types of PEVs have substantially different characteristics. The types and key attributes of PEVs, charging standards, and charging locations are described. The likely scenario for PEV-Grid interactions over the next decade is synthesized from the analysis of the technologies available to and circumstances of
vehicle manufacturers, utilities, and supplier firms. PEV adoption considerations are evolving. Many lessons have been learned from the first generation of PEVs that were introduced starting in late 2010. Technology, market, and policy drivers of emerging trends in the diffusion of PEVs are explored more in-depth. PEVs as electric loads are unique in that they are large, flexible, and intelligent. These attributes can not only provide utilities a new source of revenue, but also improve grid stability and economics. Actions, technologies, and policies that utilities can deploy to increase adoption are discussed. Actions are explored to make the overall PEV ownership experience superior to a conventional
vehicle. This dissertation also describes research of the capability for PEVs in
Vehicle to
Home (
V2H) scenarios, where the
vehicle acts as a residential battery storage system and/or a backup generator in a residential microgrid configuration during a grid outage. Residential energy data collected from a smart grid testbed is used with a custom PEV model to assess the performance (in terms of duration and power output) of a BEV or PHEV used for backup power. Our earlier results quantify the extent to which photovoltaic (PV) generation and the characteristics of a PEV (battery size, gasoline availability) affect the backup duration during an electric grid outage. Strategies to further increase backup duration and non-continuous self-sustaining off-grid alternatives were found in our early
V2H research. Varied amounts of load curtailment and PHEV engine-generator control improvements are modeled in subsequent research.

▼ Power demands will increase day-by-day because of widely adopting of Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) in the world and growing population. Finding and managing additional power resources for upcoming demands is a challenge. Renewable power is one of the alternatives. However, to manage and control renewable resources, we need suitable Energy Storage System (ESS). PEVs have a large battery pack that is used mainly to supply electric motor. Moreover, PEV battery could be used as an ESS to store power at a certain time and use it at another time. Nevertheless, it can play the same role with electric power grids, so it can store power at a time and return it at another time. This role might help the grid to meet the growing demands. In this thesis, we propose a charging and discharging coordination algorithm that effectively addresses the problem of power demand on peak time using the PEV’s batteries as a backup power storage, namely, Flexible Charging and Discharging (FCD) algorithm. The FCD algorithm aims to manage high power demands at peak times using Vehicle to Home (V2H) technologies in Smart Grid and PEV’s batteries. Intensive computer simulation is used to test FCD algorithm. The FCD algorithm shows a significant reduction in power demands and total cost, in proportion to two other algorithms, without affecting the performance of the PEV or the flexibility of PEV owner’s trip schedule.

▼ The increase in electric vehicles and photovoltaic power production may introduce problems to the low-voltage distribution grid. With a higher number of electric vehicles, their accumulated charging power might breach the lowest allowed voltage level of the grid. Photovoltaic-modules can on the other hand exceed the highest allowed voltage level, by producing high accumulated power when the solar irradiance is high. Normally, electric distribution companies in Sweden reinforce the existing grid with more resilient infrastructure, such as stronger and larger cables or transformer stations. This is however a costly and time-consuming solution, which could be solved by using alternative means such as already existing resources. This Master's Thesis investigates how smart charging of batteries can support the low-voltage electrical grid with the increase in electric vehicles and photovoltaic power production. To do this, an optimization tool has been developed in Matlab. An existing model of a low-voltage grid is combined with the developed tool, where controllable batteries and photovoltaic-modules can be placed at specific households in the grid. The controllable batteries belong to either electric vehicles or stationary battery systems, and are intended to support the grid by the means of either reducing peak load powers, voltage variations, or a trade-off between them. Furthermore, this thesis investigates the maximum electric vehicle capability for a specific low-voltage electrical grid in Sweden. From the results, it can be concluded that smart charging of batteries can reduce the peak loads as well as voltage variations. The reduction of voltage variations for the entire low-voltage grid is greatest during the summer, when photovoltaic production generally is at its highest. The results also show that a stationary battery system can reduce the voltage variations to a greater extent, compared to an electric vehicle. Also, the introduction of multiple controllable batteries allows further support of the low-voltage grid. Regarding the maximum electric vehicle capability, the results show that the placement of the vehicles and the charging power strongly affect the maximum number of electric vehicles the low-voltage grid can manage.
Ökningen av elbilar och elproduktion från solceller kan ge problem i lågspänningsnätet. Med ett ökat antal elbilar kan den sammanlagrade effekten vid laddning underskrida den minsta tillåtna spänningsnivån i nätet. Solpaneler kan däremot leda till att den högsta tillåtna spänningsnivån överskrids, genom att producera en hög sammanlagrad effekt när solstrålningen är som högst. Vanligtvis förstärker elnätsbolag i Sverige det befintliga nätet med motståndskraftigare infrastruktur, såsom kraftigare och större kablar eller transformatorstationer. Detta är dock en kostsam och tidskrävande lösning, som skulle kunna lösas med alternativa medel, till exempel redan existerande resurser. Detta examensarbete undersöker hur smart laddning av batterier kan ge stöd till…

▼ Increasing adoption of EVs in the next few decades is going to present new challenges such as EV charging creating a new and significant demand on the grid. The purpose of this thesis is to create a system that intelligently schedules the charging of EVs while considering the cost of energy and the discomfort of the user. At any given moment, 90% of vehicles are parked and have a huge energy source left unused. EVs could also be used as power sources for vehicle-to-home/vehicle-to-grid (V2H/V2G) to benefit from them during high demand of energy. This way the power plants would see almost a constant demand and usage, in the long run, making them more efficient. This thesis uses a non-intrusive data-driven technique to create a occu- pancy and EV charging model of the household. Smart meters in each household collect power usage data. From this power usage data we de- termine occupancy and EV charge sessions. The next step is to determine temporal metrics for occupancy and EV charge sessions. The temporal met- rics study the likelihood for occupancy or an EV charge session to occur or to switch from one state to another. Because there are differences between weekday/weekend and seasonal power usage, we have decided to create tem- poral metrics for each time period. The next step is to create the EV charging algorithm and V2H/V2G algorithms. These algorithms require a flexibility window. This window indicates in which hours the EV can be charged. Which hours of the flexib- ility window are chosen, depends on the type of objective. We have created three objectives: cost minimization, comfort maximization and joint object- ive. The V2H/V2G algorithm is executed when the state of charge (SoC) of the EV is higher than the SoC boundary. In order to measure the performance of the algorithm, we have created two metrics: relative savings and miss rate. The miss rate measures how an hour was scheduled for EV charging but failed. During the testing of the algorithm, we found that only the objective cost minimization was deemed useful. Each objective uses a flexibility window and we conclude that the user’s preferences are already taken into account during the creation of this window. For the execution of the EV charge scheduling algorithm, a max- imum relative savings can be achieved of 27% and a maximum miss rate of 11.1%. By choosing the SoC boundary value of 60% for V2H, maximum relative savings of 9.9% and a maximum miss rate of 5.2% can be achieved. V2G execution had a negligible effect on the relative savings and miss rate because the pricing dataset did not contain many price surges.

▼ A connected
vehicle (CV) environment is composed of a diverse data collection, data communication and dissemination, and computing infrastructure systems that are vulnerable to the same cyberattacks as all traditional computing environments. Cyberattacks can jeopardize the expected safety, mobility, energy, and environmental benefits from connected
vehicle applications. As cyberattacks can lead to severe traffic incidents, it has become one of the primary concerns in connected
vehicle applications. In this thesis, we investigate the impact of cyberattacks on the
vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) network from a V2I application point of view. Then, we develop a novel V2I cybersecurity architecture, named CVGuard, which can detect and prevent cyberattacks on the V2I environment. In designing CVGuard, key challenges, such as scalability, resiliency and future usability were considered. A case study using a distributed denial of service (DDoS) on a V2I application, "Stop Sign Gap Assist (SSGA)" application, shows that CVGuard was effective in mitigating the adverse effects created by a DDoS attack. In our case study, because of the DDoS attack, conflicts between the minor and major road vehicles occurred in an unsignalized intersection, which could have caused potential crashes. A reduction of conflicts between vehicles occurred because CVGuard was in operation. The reduction of conflicts was compared based on the number of conflicts before and after the implementation and operation of the CVGuard security platform. Analysis revealed that the strategies adopted by CVGuard were successful in reducing the conflicts by 60% where a DDoS attack compromised the SSGA application at an unsignalized intersection.

▼ Electric vehicles spread exponentially as they are the vehicles of the future. Most of the time, they are parked at
home. This parked car can be useful by using its battery as energy storage system for the house. Stationary
home energy storage systems are currently developed using repurposed end-of-life electric
vehicle batteries as well. In this thesis a model will be developed to evaluate the economical and environmental benefits from the combined use of an electric
vehicle battery and a stationary
home energy storage battery. This model was used to simulate optimal battery storage management for a number of residential use scenarios. It was found that significant economical as well as some greenhouse gas emission savings can be achieved depending on the use case.

▼ The rapid development of increasingly complex in-
vehicle electronics now offers an unprecedented level of convenience and versatility as well as accelerates the demand for connected driving experience, which can only be achieved in a comprehensive Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technology based architecture. While a number of charging and range related issues continue to impede the Electric
Vehicle (EV) market growth, integrating ITS technologies with EVs has the potential to address the problems and facilitate EV operations. This dissertation presents an ITS based
vehicle infrastructure communication architecture in which abundant information can be exchanged in real time through
vehicle-to-
vehicle and
vehicle-to- infrastructure communication, so that a variety of in-
vehicle applications can be built to enhance the performance of EVs. This dissertation emphasizes on developing two applications that are specifically designed for EVs. First, an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based routing and recharging strategy dedicated to accommodate EV trips was devised. The algorithm developed in this study seeks, in real time, the lowest cost route possible without violating the energy constraint and can quickly provide an alternate suboptimal route in the event of unexpected situations (such as traffic congestion, traffic incident and road closure). If the EV battery requires a recharge, the algorithm can be utilized to develop a charging schedule based on recharging locations, recharging cost and wait time, and to simultaneously maintain the minimum total travel time and energy consumption objectives. The author also elucidates a charge scheduling model that maximizes the net profit for each
vehicle-to-grid (V2G) enabled EV owner who participates in the grid ancillary services while the energy demands for their trips can be guaranteed as well. By applying ITS technologies, the charge scheduling model can rapidly adapt to changes of variables or coefficients within the model for the purpose of developing the latest optimal charge/discharge schedule. The performance of EVs involved in the architecture was validated by a series of simulations. A roadway network in Charleston, SC was created in the simulator and a comparison between ordinary EVs and connected EVs was performed with a series of simulation experiments. Analysis revealed that the
vehicle-to-
vehicle and
vehicle-to- infrastructure communication technology resulted in not only a reduction of the total travel time and energy consumption, but also in the reduction of the amount of the recharged electricity and corresponding cost, thus significantly relieving the concerns of range anxiety. The routing and recharging strategy also potentially allows for a reduction in the EV battery capacity, in turn reducing the cost of the energy storage system to a reasonable level. The efficiency of the charge scheduling model was validated by estimating optimal annual financial benefits and leveling the additional load from EV charging to maintain a reliable and…

▼ Connected vehicle is a fully connected transportation system in which vehicles, infrastructure, and mobile devices are enabled to exchange information in real-time to bring advancements in transportation operations. It is important to incorporate the new characteristics of the connected vehicle in the transportation planning process. Also, it is vital for planning and road agencies to better understand the impacts of connected vehicle on transportation networks, system demand, and travel behavior of road users in order to properly prepare for them. In addition, developers of connected vehicle systems can gain insight into how their systems will impact road users and network performance. When a change in performance of a transportation network occurs it can potentially cause users to change travel modes, known as mode choice. In this research, the change in mode choice, due to the change in network performance by introduction of connected vehicle is studied. This provides a more accurate depiction of the performance of the network and indicates how connected vehicles could change travellers’ preference in travel mode. The effect of this technology is explored on the performance of the Toronto waterfront, in a microsimulation environment. The results show that average travel time increases for high market penetrations when a dynamic route guidance algorithm is implemented, a phenomenon that occurs in dense, and complex traffic networks. Analysis of mode choice shows a loss in the auto mode share, for high market penetrations, due to the increased auto travel times. This loss in the auto mode share is compensated by increases in the other modes.

▼ This thesis proposes an innovation strategy to leverage the potential of connected vehicles for the fleet of LeasePlan, the global leader in automobile leasing and fleet management. This strategy has been developed through an extensive analysis of the internal environment, customer trends, industry developments, and emerging technologies in combination with Design Thinking and Roadmapping activities. It provides a set of solutions where the connected
vehicle is believed to create the biggest impact for LeasePlan’s business, it’s market position and in meeting its ambition to shift towards a zero emission fleet by 2030. The automotive industry is at the beginning of a transition in response to the Paris Agreement and with ever greater demands in society for cleaner mobility. At the same time, the Internet of Things is one of the leading trends that is expected to rapidly transform the automotive industry, by introducing the connected
vehicle. With LeasePlan’s total fleet of 1.8 million vehicles and soon a comparable amount of private charge points, LeasePlan has a significant influence on the development of sustainable transport systems. LeasePlan sees the growing request from its clients for expertise and guidance within fleet electrification. Clients try to find solutions to meet the rapidly increasing demand for charge infrastructure and to reach cost and footprint optimisation, while drivers deal with the inconveniences around electric driving. This study has identified how LeasePlan can use the connected
vehicle to provide clients support in the zero emission transition and to deliver a desirable electric
vehicle driver experience. The resulting strategy consists of the following four main elements, recommending LeasePlan to: 1) Provide Parking Support and Priority Load Balancing in the near term to increase efficient chargepoint occupation, to enhance efficient usage of charge capacity and to accommodate tailored advice on infrastructure expansion based on the real fleet behaviour. With Parking Support, drivers will be supported in their charge and park plan to enable fair chargepoint sharing. With Priority Load Balancing, smart capacity division increases charge flexibility for the fleet. This all results in minimum infrastructure investment for clients. 2) Introduce ‘Smart Charging’ in the second term for further reduction of the carbon footprint and energy costs for both clients and drivers by: automatically altered charging sessions and guidance for the driver to charge during the moments when the most green electricity is available and when the energy prices are low. 3) Develop a car-sharing system for a Connected & Electric Shared Pool, in the third term to realise optimal fleet efficiency, to create cost optimisation and to contribute to livable and cleaner urban areas. 4) Utilise the lease fleet to store renewable energy in the longer term. This realises energy self-sufficient offices and this brings profit for the customer when he plays with the fluctuations in energy prices during energy storage,…

▼ Connected
Vehicle research has emerged as one of the highest priorities in the transportation systems because connected
vehicle technology has the potential to improve safety, mobility, and environment for the current transportation systems. Various connected
vehicle based applications have been identified and evaluated through various measurements to assess the performance of connected
vehicle applications. However, most of these previous studies have used hypothetical study areas with simple networks for connected
vehicle environment. This study represents connected
vehicle environment in TRANSIMS to assess the performance of V2V communication applications in the realistic urban network. The communication duration rate and spatial-temporal dispersion of equipped vehicles are investigated to evaluate the capability of V2V communication based on the market penetration rate of equipped vehicles and wireless communication coverage in the whole study area. The area coverage level is used to assess the spatial-temporal dispersion of equipped vehicles for two study areas.
The distance of incident information propagation and speed estimation error are used to measure the performance of event-driven and periodic applications based on different market penetration rates of equipped vehicles and wireless communication coverage in both morning peak and non-peak times. The wireless communication coverage is the major factor for event-driven application and the market penetration rate of equipped vehicles has more impact on the performance of periodic application. The required minimum levels of deployment for each application are determined for each scenario. These study findings will be useful for making decisions about investments on deployment of connected
vehicle applications to improve the current transportation systems. Notably, event-driven applications can be reliably deployed in the initial stage of deployment despite the low level of market penetration of equipped vehicles.

▼ The introduction of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) into the transportation system will provide both opportunities and challenges for those who own the vehicles and power systems operators. The opportunities come in the form of the ability to provide
vehicle-to-grid (V2G) services including peak load reduction and frequency regulation. Utilizing these services can provide profits for the
vehicle owners, cost savings for the grid operators, and reduced air pollution. The primary goal of this study is to analyze these benefits from the viewpoint of the individual
vehicle owner. It is found that there is little financial incentive when V2G services are used for peak reduction. There is much greater potential for financial return when V2G services are used to provide frequency regulation, likely enough to incentivize many people to participate in such a program. Proposed in this paper is a system that combines these V2G services into a single program, which could have the effect of ensuring profits for the individual, while still providing cost-saving opportunities for grid operators, and emission reductions during the times when it is needed most. In addition to the opportunities brought about by increased penetration of PHEVs, there are challenges as well. This comes mainly in the form of increased demand for electricity. The possible effects on electricity load of increased PHEV penetration and V2G participation are analyzed in this paper. Furthermore, an econometric model is used to predict the effect of increased electricity load on electricity price at each hour of the day. It is found that increased PHEV penetration can (in a regulated charging scheme) increase electricity loads and prices during the hours when electricity loads and prices are currently lowest. Furthermore, if V2G technology is used for peak reduction, electricity loads and prices can be reduced during peak electricity demand hours. The overall effect of this is a flattening of the daily electricity load and price profiles, which is likely to be beneficial for power system operators. The flattening of the daily electricity price profile has the effect of reducing profits when V2G technology is used for peak reduction because it raises the price during charging (buying electricity) and lowers the price during discharging (selling electricity). While the analysis presented here works within the framework of the current electricity markets, it is possible that the best use for V2G technology could come in a program that allows grid operators to dispatch the stored energy for the optimal purpose (e.g.: peak reduction, regulation, reserves, ramping) at any period of time. This would require a different type of market structure, possibly even a separate market for storage, in which V2G services could participate.

▼ The aim of platooning is to enable several vehicles to drive in a convoy while each vehicle is controlled autonomously in longitudinal direction. All vehicles in the platoon are equipped with WiFi and can therefore apply Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication. As a result, a short intermediate distance between the vehicles can be maintained. Reduction of the aerodynamic drag is the result of the short distance, which in turn, reduces the consumed fuel.
This thesis is a part of a larger project, consisting of two other theses that investigate estimation of the sensor data. Other scenarios that may arise with the platooning concept, e.g. packet losses and time synchronization of the different sensors are also analyzed.
The purpose of this master thesis is to develop and evaluate a Model Predictive Control (MPC) in the concept of platooning. The main focus lies on implementation of two types of MPC, centralized and distributed, and later on integration with the other two subsystems is performed.
Results from the MPC itself are evaluated, principally in terms of fuel con- sumption and computational demand. The major part of the results are based on the complete system as one unit and covers different test scenarios such as WiFi loss and non-transmitting vehicle entering the platoon. A comparison of how much energy that is consumed by the engine between an HDV driving with its cruise control and an HDV driving in a platoon has been performed. With an intermediate distance of 10 meters, driving with varying velocity and ideal signals the energy consumption got reduced with an average of 11%.
Syftet med platooning är att flera tunga fordon kör tätt efter varandra i ett fordonståg. Varje fordon regleras autonomt i longitudinell riktning och är utrustad med WiFi. Detta bidrar till att fordonen kan kommunicera med varandra och denna kommunikation, även kallad Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) - communication, leder till att det relativa avståndet mellan fordonen kan minskas, vilket i sin tur leder till minskat luftmotstånd och därmed minskad bränsleförbrukning.
Detta examensarbete är en del av ett större projekt som består av ytterligare två examensarbeten. De andra två hanterar estimeringen av sensordata samt behandlar förlorat sensordata och tidssynkronisering av de olika sensorerna som används.
Syftet med detta examensarbete är att utveckla och utvärdera en MPC regu- lator i platooning sammanhang. Huvudfokuset ligger på implementeringen, både centraliserad och distribuerad MPC, och integreringen med de två andra delsystemen.
Resultaten från enbart MPC utvärderas i termer av bränsleförbrukning och även beräkningskapactiet, då MPC är känt för att vara väldigt beräkningskrävan- de och är ofta en begränsning för hårdvaran. Den största delen av resultaten är baserade på hela systemet och täcker olika scenarion som exempelvis dålig WiFi uppkoppling och att icke−sändande fordon intar platoonen. En jämförelse av hur mycket energi motorn…

▼ In a future scenario electric vehicles (EV) could be operated in
Vehicle to Grid (V2G) mode to support the national and renewable energy electricity grid by providing ancillary services such as peak shaving and frequency regulation. While developing financial models to price these services it is important to include the impact of
Vehicle to Grid operation on the power-delivery components of these Electric Vehicles. Considerable amount of academic research has been focused on understanding the impact of
Vehicle to Grid operation on Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs). However, information about the impact of
Vehicle to Grid operation on the fuel cells (FCs) of Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCEVs) and Fuel Cell Range Extender Electric Vehicles (FCREEVs) is scarce. Long term tests are required to asses the impact of
Vehicle to Grid operation on these fuel cells. The fuel tank volume limitation of the TU Delft Hyundai FCEV does not allow for long term
Vehicle to Grid experiments using the operational
Vehicle to Grid set-up at the TU Delft Green Village site. Furthermore, there exist limited control over the power management strategy programmed in the Hyundai FCEV; the power management strategy defining the load cycle it’s Fuel Cell undergoes in
Vehicle to Grid operation. This study therefore proposes a method to conduct simulated long term
Vehicle to Grid experiments on a laboratory test bench. The method has also been applied, and the impact of simulated
Vehicle to Grid operation on the Fuel Cell of the PEMFC test bench estimated. Most importantly, the experimental conditions simulated on the laboratory test-bench were derived from data recorded in the Hyundai FCEV during actual
Vehicle to Grid operation. Simulated
Vehicle to Grid operation under three aging cycles: high constant load (CC1), low constant load (CC2) and cyclic load (CC3), was found to cause a performance loss in the range of 31.4 μV h 1 to 40.9 μV h 1, 62.5 μV h 1 to 63.9 μV h 1 and 36.1 μV h 1 to 92.4 μV h 1 respectively.

▼ The increase in electric vehicle (EV) demand and the associated electricity load on the power network have made researchers to start working on managing and controlling EVs' connection time to the electricity grid. Vehicle to grid concept was introduced to enable EVs to connect to the grid and discharge their extra electricity to the network so that the utility company could use it for regulation purposes. In this thesis, offline and online scheduling optimization models are developed for EV charging and discharging. The objective of the optimization models is to maximize the satisfaction of EV customers. Customer satisfaction is incorporated using different factors through multiple scenarios. In the offline model, all EVs and grid information are known for the V2G management to decide the scheduling for EVs. Mixed integer linear programming is used to solve the offline model. The result of the offline model is the optimum solution the scheduling problem could get. On the other hand in the online model, which is a more realistic case, EVs arrival and departure times and their parameters are not identified in advance. For this model, rolling horizon optimization is used in the online scheduling algorithm. Applying rolling horizon enables the author to get the optimal solution for the online model. Mixed integer linear programing is linked with a MATLAB algorithm to solve the online scheduling model. A numerical example, including a large number of EVs in a parking lot is generated to test the efficacy of both proposed models.

▼ Robust and efficient communication protocols for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs)
are still an open topic in the literature. Because of that, our attention has been gathered
by the Data Dissemination and the Information Hovering protocols for VANETs.
For most of the VANETs' applications the data dissemination is a crucial process.
Also, for many of them the availability of information over some time in a bounded
region, or a Hovering Information protocol, is a key feature. Hence, in this thesis we
are proposing two data dissemination protocols and one information hovering protocol
for VANETs. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance of these protocols by conducting an extensive simulation experiment and comparing their effectiveness with other relevant protocols in the literature. As could be seen in the results shown in the thesis, the proposed protocols outperform the other schemes regarding various evaluation parameters as Delivery Ration, Total number of rebroadcast packets, etc.

▼ The Department of Defense, through a combination of mandated Executive Orders and voluntary energy saving goals has direction to achieve improvements in energy self-sufficiency onboard its major domestic bases. Two primary areas of interest are in the area of expanding use of collocated renewable energy production (Wind, Solar, Biomass), and the capability to operate at some level of capacity completely independent of commercial utility providers in an "islanded" microgrid condition. Reduced environmental impact and enhanced energy security are a proposed result of the achievement of these objectives. Traditional power grids have only a negligible energy storage capability, so production must equal demand at all times. Energy production from renewable sources is intermittent and not
subject to dispatch, so it requires smoothing to enhance its utilization and value.
Vehicle to Grid (the use of
vehicle energy storage as a grid resource) provides a technology which can mitigate the difficulties in integration of renewable power generation as well as provide collocated energy storage for a microgrid under islanded conditions. Military bases are equipped with extensive
vehicle fleets for both operational support and logistics requirements. This report analyzes the potential benefit of electrifying this fleet of
vehicle assets as V2G capable Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) or Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) to not only achieve energy savings with the vehicles themselves, but to concurrently achieve advances in the integration of collocated renewable resources as well as provide enhanced independent microgrid operation. Previous studies have focused on V2G capability in terms of its application in the civilian sector. Primary measures of the effectiveness of V2G are availability, reliability, and commercial viability. These metrics focus the employment of V2G to primarily the Ancillary Services portion of the commercial power production market due to the difficulty in aggregating thousands of independently owned energy sources/sinks in a reliable and cost effective way. The military base environment provides a new and compelling use for V2G, in that individual
vehicle assets are commanded operationally and therefore much easier to aggregate reliably. Also of interest is the requirement in an "islanded" scenario, where V2G might provide all the requirements of a full power grid including Base Load, Peak Load, and Ancillary Services reliably and with some level of improved capability over traditional power generation technologies such as backup diesel generation. This study explores the viability of V2G as part of the DoD's operational and strategic energy initiatives. It provides a review of energy requirements for islanded operation on a typical military air base, proposes a model fleet of BEV/PHEV assets to attempt to meet those requirements, evaluates the operational and strategic value of the V2G system, and proposes an idealized Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for the employment of those…

▼ Currently in the energy system of the Netherlands, lower level consumer demand flexibility is rather obsolete due to sufficient capacity limits of the distribution network and supply of capacity mechanisms by large industrial actors. However, in the upcoming 10- 20 years, the power system is in transition to become decentralised with a higher share of renewable energy sources and significant increase in consumption. An operational control structure in the power system, where private consumers provide flexible capacity, is an effective and economical efficient approach to make sure the regulated process of electricity generation to supply at consumers is secure and reliable. Currently as a result of the EU Energy Efficiency Directive of 2012, an institutional base is presented for development initiatives of demand response in Europe [17]. Technical and regulatory standards now enable demand response flexibility to be offered on the wholesale and retail energy market and allow for consumer participation [34]. Demand response schemes are usually distinguished by the various motivation methods offered to the participating consumers. Programs include in general two control methods, centralised direct load control or time-based and incentive-based DR. Because these schemes rely on demand response decision-making by means of a centralised (multi) aggregator perspective, direct load control can be precisely adjusted to technical (local) grid constraints [69]. Practically, the objective of DR in this research is used to reduce congestion in distribution grids by moving part of BEV energy demand from (evening) peaks to the afternoon or night with direct control. By achieving these measures potential benefits arise, including the most profound in the distribution grid [29]: • Optimising local grid assets by increasing the utilisation factor, and thereby maximise asset efficiency and subsequently decrease costs, which is beneficial for the DSO • Scheduling of peak charging demand to aid congestion in distribution grids. The modelling of the demand response charging strategies in Amsterdam fills the knowledge gap towards handling congestion for the DSO. It also provides a new study that addresses the potential to postpone future distribution grid investments by using charging strategies specifically for Amsterdam. The main research question that this study addresses is therefore: What is the value of demand response management in a
Vehicle-to-Grid network and does it provide increased benefits to smart charging for consumers and the distribution system operator in Amsterdam? In order to grasp the
subject of congestion prevention within the time limits of graduation, the scope of this study is limited to assess the first mentioned item by modelling charging demand, and subsequently simulate optimal demand response charging strategies for a case study in Amsterdam’s local power grid. The motivation for this study is threefold. Firstly, providing insight and recommendations in Amsterdam’s BEV…

▼ A transition to V2G is hampered by many barriers, such as battery degradation and high investment cost. A dramatic shift towards autonomous vehicles (AVs) in the future transport system drastically changes the conditions for a transition to V2G, potentially resulting in a more flexible V2G system that efficiently deals with bidirectional flows between AVs and the electricity grid and the transport of passengers. Despite the beneficial effects AVs might have on a V2G transition, there is a lack of scientific research into the joint development of these technologies. This research bridges this knowledge gap by exploring the potential effects of autonomous battery electric vehicles on the performance of V2G for two scenarios: privately-owned unshared AVs and fleet-owned shared AVs. While privately-owned unshared AVs are expected to not have significant effects, fleet-owned shared AVs in combination with charging hubs are expected to enhance the performance of V2G because the ability to provide spinning reserve improves, the investment cost of the charging infrastructure decreases, negative impact on the distribution network can be controlled, and range anxiety disappears. However, uncertainties related to the potential revenues of some drivers and the impact of V2G on battery degradation remain an issue and require further research. In addition, the development of fleet-owned shared AVs is expected to include an on-demand business model that maximises the utilisation rate of AVs for mobility services because the value of renting out the vehicle is much higher than the value of V2G. If the final development path would contain this business model, the priority for V2G would be minimised which would create a new, insurmountable barrier that destroys the business case for V2G systems.

▼ Vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication may provide high data rates to vehicles via millimeter-wave (mmWave) microcellular networks. This thesis uses stochastic geometry to analyze the coverage of urban mmWave microcellular networks. Prior work used a pathloss model with a line-of- sight probability function based on randomly oriented buildings, to determine whether a link was line-of-sight or non-line-of-sight. In this thesis, we use a pathloss model inspired by measurements, which uses a Manhattan distance model and accounts for differences in pathloss exponents and losses when turn- ing corners. In our model, streets and base stations (BSs) are randomly located on a network formed by a two dimensional Poisson line process. Our model is well suited for urban microcellular networks where the base stations are deployed at street level. Based on this new approach, we derive the coverage probability under certain BS association rules to obtain closed-form solutions without much complexity. In addition, we draw two main conclusions from our work. First, non-line-of-sight BSs are not a major benefit for association or source of interference. Second, there is an ultra-dense regime where deploying (active) BSs does not enhance coverage.

▼ A lane closure can significantly reduce the vehicles speed through the freeway bottleneck, resulting in the congestion buildup. As the queue length grows past the posted static warning signs in the congested zone surprising many drivers which can greatly increase the probability of rear end vehicle crash. In such circumstances, a real time traffic safety information system could help minimize rear end collisions. Current traffic information systems use radio, internet, or cellular communication to convey the information of congestion to the drivers. This information is generated using static sensor probes that often give a rough estimate of traffic parameters e.g., end-of-queue location, and travel time. Additionally, the update to the traffic data occurs quite infrequently and sometimes is obsolete by the time when a driver receives it. However, these systems suffer from issues such as latency and reliance on third party and/or dedicated infrastructure support.This paper presents architecture, functionality, and field evaluation of a newly developed real-time traffic information system using DSRC based V2V communication without needing any roadside infrastructure support. The developed system utilizes an ad-hoc host vehicle acting as central control from among the DSRC equipped vehicles present on the road to dynamically acquire important traffic parameters such as starting and ending locations of congestion, and travel time. Furthermore, it provides useful traffic alerts to DSRC equipped vehicles to improve drivers' situational awareness. The algorithm designed for the system makes it fully adaptable to any congestion scenario whether due to a work zone or an incident, or due to regular rush hour traffic. The developed system is well suited for operational deployment in future, particularly during the initial phase of the DSRC market penetration, because it incorporates DSRC equipped programmable changeable message signs (PCMSs) to convey the warning messages to non-DSRC equipped vehicles. Furthermore, a rigorous analysis has been conducted to investigate the minimum DSRC market penetration rate needed for the developed system to successfully acquire and disseminate TT and SLoC for the work zone. The results of this analysis suggest that a market penetration rate ranging from 20% to 35% is needed for the system to reliably work.

▼ In recent decades, vehicular networks or intelligent transportation systems are being increasingly investigated and used to provide solutions to next generation traffic systems. Road traffic density estimation provides important information for road planning, intelligent road routing, road traffic control, vehicular network traffic scheduling, routing and dissemination. The ever increasing number of vehicles equipped with wireless communication capabilities provide new means to estimate the road traffic density more accurately and in real time than traditionally used techniques. In this thesis, we consider two research problems on road traffic density estimation. First research problem is the estimation algorithm design of road traffic density where each vehicle estimates its local road traffic density using some simple measurements only, i.e. the number of neighboring vehicles. A maximum likelihood estimator of the traffic density is obtained based on a rigorous analysis of the joint distribution of the number of vehicles in each hop. Analysis is also conducted on the accuracy of the estimation and the amount of neighborhood information required for an accurate road traffic density estimation. Simulations are performed which validate the accuracy and the robustness of the proposed density estimation algorithm. Secondly, we consider the problem of road traffic density estimation based on the use of a stochastic geometry concept—contact distribution function, which obtains density estimates by a probe vehicle traveling within objective area, measuring the inter-contact vehicle numbers and lengths. A maximum likelihood estimator of the traffic density is applied. Analysis is also performed on the accuracy of the estimation and the small sample sizes’ bias has been corrected. Simulations are performed which validate the accuracy and robustness of the proposed density estimation algorithm.

▼ The goal of an intelligent transportation system is to increase safety, convenience and efficiency in driving. Besides these obvious advantages, the integration of intelligent features and autonomous functionalities on vehicles will lead to major economic benefits from reduced fuel consumption to efficient exploitation of the road network.
While giving this information to the driver can be useful, there is also the possibility of overloading the driver with too much information. Existing vehicles already have some mechanisms to take certain actions if the driver fails to act. Future vehicles will need more complex decision making modules which receive the raw data from all available sources, process this data and inform the driver about the existing or impending situations and suggest, or even take actions.
Intelligent vehicles can take advantage of using different sources of data to provide more reliable and more accurate information about driving situations and build a safer driving environment. I have identified five general sources of data which is available for intelligent vehicles: the vehicle itself, cameras on the vehicle, communication between the vehicle and other vehicles, communications between vehicles and roadside units and the driver information. But facing this huge amount of data requires a decision making module to collect this data and provide the best reaction based on the situation.
In this thesis, I present a data fusion approach for decision making in vehicles in which a decision making module collects data from the available sources of information and analyses this data and provides the driver with helpful information such as traffic congestion, emergency messages, etc.
The proposed approach uses agents to collect the data and the agents cooperate using a black board method to provide the necessary data for the decision making system. The Decision making system benefits from this data and provides the intelligent vehicle applications with the best action(s) to be taken.
Overall, the results show that using this data fusion approach for making decision in vehicles shows great potential for improving performance of vehicular systems by reducing travel time and wait time and providing more accurate information about the surrounding environment for vehicles. In addition, the safety of vehicles will increase since the vehicles will be informed about the hazard situations.

▼ Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) have the potential to not only reduce CO2 emissions from transportation, but also serve as distributed banks of energy storage for grid operators in a service called
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G, V1G). The need for energy storage will become increasingly crucial as intermittent sources of renewable energy are integrated. Previous studies have claimed that providing V2G/V1G services to the grid will generate annual revenues on the order of 2,500 per PEV from the frequency regulation market (Kempton & Tomic, 2005a). In this relatively lucrative market, small power draws to and from the resource enable the correction of imbalances in the net load on the grid. Bids are secured independently for regulating the load down or up, allowing PEVs to manage the power in their batteries to either charge as normal (V1G), or both charge and discharge (V2G).
No known prior studies include the cost of the infrastructure and market participation fees necessary to provide this service, suggesting that initial revenue estimates are optimistic at best. In order for a fleet operator to break even over the lifetime of the investment, an annual average market clearing price of 36/MW-h is necessary for V2G fleets and 6.40/MW-h is necessary for V1G fleets. The current average price for this service is 5/MW-h, and has been dropping over the last three years. Unless this price increases, the cost of V2G/V1G equipment and market participation declines substantially, or subsidies are introduced, it will be economically difficult for this service to move beyond the pilot project phase.

▼ In this dissertation we provide a comprehensive framework for evaluating the merits of wireless
vehicle-to-
vehicle (V2V) communication on traffic. In particular we focus on mixed traffic scenarios that will dominate highways in the next several decades. Such mixed traffic primarily contains conventional human driven vehicles, however also includes connected human-driven vehicles, automated vehicles, and connected automated vehicles. Connected human-driven vehicles are human-operated vehicles that are able to send and receive messages using V2V. Automated vehicles rely on an internal computer (rather than a human) to process information from sensors such as cameras or radars to control their motion. Finally connected automated vehicles are automated vehicles that use information received from V2V communication in addition to sensory information for controlling their motion.
Our framework is based on developing a prototype connected automated
vehicle and investigating its effects on traffic patterns amongst human driven vehicles. We first establish an experimental procedure and criteria for tuning the connected automated
vehicle's controller to follow a connected human-driven
vehicle at a desired distance. We then showcase an experimental configuration that allows us to observe traffic patterns in a three-car connected
vehicle network, where our connected automated
vehicle interacts with two connected human-driven vehicles. These experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of connected automated vehicles using beyond-line-of-sight information in promoting smooth traffic flow in a mixed traffic environment.
To investigate the effects of connected automated vehicles for large networks, we first focus on simple car-following models without communication, actuation or human reaction delay. For these models we are able to analytically characterize the traffic patterns occurring in human driven traffic at various densities, as well as show that connected automated vehicles can indeed mitigate congestion and promote stable uniform flow of traffic. By exploiting the cyclic symmetry of the governing equations, we rigorously show that the results hold for arbitrarily large connected
vehicle networks, and also that the feedback to long-range information in connected automated vehicles should be carefully chosen to ensure the benefit to traffic flow.
Lastly we use simulations to investigate large connected
vehicle networks, where delays, nonlinearities, wireless communication delay, and eclectic driving dynamics are considered. We use these simulations to demonstrate that indeed the information from beyond-line-of-sight is the key feature that allows the connected automated vehicles to bring significant benefits to traffic. Finally, we conduct penetration studies to quantify the extent to which connected automated vehicles may benefit traffic at partial penetrations, and discuss the implications of this study on the current competing wireless V2X communication technologies.

▼ Battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles have the potential to cover the shortage in renewable power generation by engaging in vehicle-to-grid. However, the vehicle-to-grid service cannot completely make up for the intermittent nature of renewables. Deterministic models were used to compute the extent to which the vehicles can engage in the vehicle-to-grid service in a smart city domain using the ‘Car as Power Plant’ model. The extent to which the vehicles can provide grid support in terms of energy valley filling is dependent on the method of selecting the vehicles for vehicle-to-grid and the nature of the load demand. Constraining algorithms limiting the extent of refuelling and recharging of the vehicles can help curtail import of hydrogen and power and spread the demand more evenly across the timeline, but also increase the waiting times during the same. An aggregator while coordinating vehicles for the vehicle-to-grid service may encounter some conflicts of interests with respect to ensuring equal vehicle-to-grid participation amongst its customers and investing in the supporting energy infrastructure. The setting of a minimum threshold fuel requirement for participating in vehicle-to-grid strongly relates to the effectiveness of the vehicle-to-grid service. There are some barriers for the adoption of vehicle-to-grid adoption such as competition from stationary batteries and its unreliability that is limiting its uptake. Additionally, the lack of mass uptake of battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles has not yet got the market participants interested to invest in the vehicle-to-grid technology. Optimal smart charging strategies must address a variety of variables such as the solar hours, hourly grid prices, peak hours surcharge, charging infrastructure and congestion management. Many of the variables associated with smart charging are conflicting in nature and it sheds light on the multi-actor optimisation role of an energy aggregator.
