Title
Potential Impacts of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles on Regional Power Generation
Description
This 93-page paper analyzes potential PHEV impact on electricity demand, supply, generation, pricing, and emissions levels in 2020 and 2030. It considers 13 regions specified by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), and the Department of Energy's (DOE) Energy Information Administration. Seven scenarios were provided for each region. Electricity requirement projections for PHEVs are based on analysis from the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) with an optimistic expectation of 25% market penetration by 2020. Calculations were provided by the Oak Ridge Competitive Electricity Dispatch model, which was developed over the past 12 years to assess various significant electricity sector issues.

Smart Grid: The Tuesday Topic - Smart Grid News - Grid Modernization and the Smart Grid

 THE TUESDAY TOPIC

If you could design your own smart grid demo, what would it look like?

Three new demonstration projects caught our attention - a smart grid effort in Albuquerque's business district, a rapid recovery transformer study in Texas and a trial involving low voltage current sensor technologies in the UK. They also got us to thinking: At this stage in the smart grid build out, if you could design a demonstration project, what would it entail? That's our latest Tuesday Topic; click for the details.
