Technical Activities

To provide strong technical focus in the theory, design, and application of battery storage components, systems, standards, and grid interface technologies related to efficient energy storage for all types of electrified transportation, including electric vehicles (EVs), hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs), as well as heavy-duty, rail, and off-road vehicles, airplanes, and ships.

Chair: Matthias Preindl

The objective of this Committee is to reach across IEEE Societies to foster awareness, communicate about, and coordinate efforts concerning essential interfaces between electric, vehicles (EVs) and the electric power grid.

Scope

Electrification of the transportation sector is undergoing transformational with significant impact on the society and industry.  The objective of this Committee is to reach across IEEE Societies to foster awareness, communicate about, and coordinate efforts concerning essential interfaces between electrified transportation and electric power system. These interfaces include direct and indirect connections for charge/discharge purposes as well as any requisite stationary or mobile support infrastructure.

The scope includes the following elements:

• Charge and discharge electrical interconnections, ride-through requirements, and demand management controls
• Design of metering and monitoring infrastructure
• Outreach to utilities, regulators, and key stakeholders to understand the impact of fleet electrification on the utility grids.
• Examination of infrastructure needs, mitigation solutions, methods for locating areas for upgrades and options for covering the cost of the infrastructure that enables fleet electrification.
• Development of “roaming” options for billing and credits
• Communication requirements to maintain electric transport safety and service functions
• Integration of into building services and backup needs
• Incorporation of electric transportation into demand flexibility services, particularly dispatch and ancillary service regimes
• Incorporation of electric vehicles into VPPs (Virtual Power Plants)
• Forecasting electric transport demand profiles and growth rates
• Emerging “drive-by” and other opportunity charging options, e.g., catenaries and electrified roadway segments
• Environmental and energy efficiency issues
• Data management and analytics requirements in support of all requisite functions

To this end the Technical Committee will:

• Work w/IEEE-SA and society technical committees to develop and maintain standards
• Develop and offer tutorials and webinars
• Prepare white papers, technical reports, and educational materials suitable for general public, regulators, and legislators
• Organize and/or participate in topical meetings and conferences
