MEGEE: Mobile Edge computer Geared v2x for E-mobility Ecosystem
2019
Author(s): Cao Y, Wu C, Zhang X, Liu W, Peng L, Khalid M
In this paper, the authors propose a Mobile Edge computer Geared v2x for E-mobility Ecosystem (MEGEE), as a decentralized alternative to the conventional centralized cloud based architecture. MEGEE enables the Vehicular Delay/Disruption Tolerant Networking (VDTN)-driven anycasting for information delivery, and Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) functioned CSs for information mining and aggregation.

2019
Author(s): Bracco S, Delfino F, Piazza G, Foiadelli F, Longo M
This paper focused on the integration of renewable sources and storage systems in the household sector with a special attention to the adoption of home smart charging infrastructures for electric vehicles.
Evaluation of Grid Capacities for Integrating Future E-Mobility and Heat Pumps Into Low-Voltage Grids
2019
Author(s): Thormann B, Kienberger T
Although the area-wide introduction of electric vehicles (EVs) and electric heat pumps (HPs) would lead to the decarbonization of the energy system, existing low-voltage (LV) power grids will present new challenges.
On the Ease of Being Green: An Investigation of the Inconvenience of Electric Vehicle Charging
2020
Author(s): Dixon J, Andersen PB, Bell K, Træholt C
This paper provides a quantitative investigation of the inconvenience of charging electric vehicles (EV) in comparison to the internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV) in terms of the time penalty that drivers are likely to face.
Optimal Deployment of Charging Stations Considering Path Deviation and Nonlinear Elastic Demand
2020
Author(s): Xu M, Meng Q
This study aims to determine the optimal deployment of charging stations for BEVs by maximizing the covered path flows taking into account the path deviation and nonlinear elastic demand.
Power Loss Analysis and Thermal Assessment on Wireless Electric Vehicle Charging Technology: The Over-Temperature Risk of Ground Assembly Needs Attention
2020
Author(s): Niu S, Yu H, Niu S, Jian L
Wireless electric vehicle charging (WEVC) emerges as a promising technology due to convenience characteristics and the mitigation of range anxiety to enable e-mobility. Recently, the safety issues on WEVC systems have drawn considerable attention. In light of thermal safety, the most critical part of WEVC systems is the surface of ground assembly (GA).
Simulating the Impact of E-Mobility Charging Infrastructure on Urban Low-Voltage Networks
2020
Author(s): Echternacht D, El Haouati I, Schermuly R, Meyer F
Driven by subsidies, the Volkswagen emission scandal, the discussion on driving bans for diesel cars and the decreasing prices for electric vehicles, it is expected that their numbers in Germany will increase dramatically in the coming years.
Towards E-mobility: Strengths and Weaknesses of Electric Vehicles
2020
Author(s): Carteni A, Henke I, Molitierno C, Errico A
The paper aims at critically analyze weaknesses, strengths and application fields of the electric mobility in Italy. Specifically, the electric vehicle today has high production costs, low autonomy and not “zero” environmental impacts deriving from the production, motion and recycling of the vehicle.
On the Road to Electrification – A Qualitative Comparative Analysis of Urban E-Mobility Policies in 15 European Cities
2019
Author(s): Held T, Gerrits L
A large number of factors at both local and national levels affect the adoption rate of electric vehicles (EVs). Much of the research aimed at understanding what conditions are based on either degree in which adoption thrives.
