This work investigated the potential of implementing the dual-fuel Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition (RCCI) combustion mode in a plug-in hybrid vehicle platform. The results are compared against other electrifications levels and no-hybrid vehicles under the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP) normative.

In the present paper, the charging of an electric vehicles fleet is scheduled in order to provide power balance regulation to the electric grid. The starting of e-cars charging can be optimized according to predetermined limits set by users, in order to adjust the power exchange profile of the aggregated fleet. The

The developments of technologies related to Renewable Energy Sources, together with the advancements in the e-mobility sector, have led to the need for a paradigm shift toward a new smart grid scenario.

In the global trend of electric mobility faster development approaches are required for reducing time-to-market. These approaches include agile product development and building prototypes at earlier stages in the development process.

Electromobility can contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions if usage behavior is aligned with the increasing availability of renewable energy. To achieve this, smart navigation systems can be used to inform drivers of optimal charging times and locations.

The expansion of electric vehicles in Italy, has already started a few years ago, but some aspects prevent its expansion. Currently users prefer hybrid technology, mainly due to socio-economic factors related to initial investment and anxiety about autonomy.

The e-Mobility is one of the most important fields of interest in the frame of green energy utilization, new technologies are now available for employment in the system Vehicle - User - Infrastructure.

In 2016 Mercedes-Benz SA introduced hybrid vehicles into their East London factory, pioneering high-voltage automotive manufacturing in the country. When the implementation decision was made, the factory was given less than a year to introduce this dangerous new technology at a level that met stringent international safety and quality standards, against a backdrop of a lack of applicable local legislation.

Finding sustainable and adaptive urban transportation solutions has the ability to shape the quality of life in cities. However, one major challenge involves reducing motorised private transportation in urban areas, which is largely responsible for noise and air pollution as well as increasingly long waiting times in congestion.

The work is about energy demand assessment for long term operation of vehicles in everyday conditions, with mileage measured in thousands of kilometers over a period of several years. The work concern mainly battery electric vehicles (BEVs).
