Abstract:

This study is primarily focused on a detailed technical review and market survey of V2X technology, and techno economic analysis backed recommendations for V2X adaption in Indian context. The review of V2X technology includes a detailed review of bidirectional charging enabled chargers and EVs. The system architecture which involves the interaction between different stakeholders of V2X, the communication infrastructure, and the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders for implementation of different V2X use cases has been also critically analyzed in this study. These use cases include the utilization of V2X for peak load management, increased renewable energy (RE) integration, voltage and frequency support, vehicle to home (V2H), vehicle to building (V2B), vehicle to load (V2L), etc. A detailed analysis, for gaining an understanding of the technical know-how of V2X has also been performed in this study, followed by techno-economic analysis to determine viability of V2X implementation in the Indian context.
