  3. 13. Charging forward for apartments: Quantifying the gap in electric vehicle ownership between apartments and houses – a Swedish case study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Bobby Chen; [2019]
    Keywords : Electric vehicle; electric mobility; electric cars; ownership; adoption; housing; apartment; multi-dwelling; multi-family; regression; income; multi-vehicle; home charging; charging; technology adoption; sustainable transport; Sweden.; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : This thesis provides the first empirical analysis of the electric vehicle ownership gap between vehicle owners living in apartments and those living in houses. Using 2018 survey data collected by RISE Viktoria on Swedish vehicle owners, this study uses regression techniques to quantify the extent to which occupants of apartments adopt electric vehicles at a lower rate compared to occupants of houses, after controlling for income and multi-vehicle ownership – two factors which previous literature have indicated are significant determinants of EV adoption.

  4. 14. Grid impact study of frequency regulation with EVs

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Emma Blomgren; [2018]
    Keywords : Electric vehicles EVs ; grid impact; ancillary services; frequency regulation; FCR-N; vehicle-to-grid V2G ; voltage; reactive power; load profile; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The ongoing grid paradigm shift has resulted in synchronous generators currently being phased out. As the generators have been providing ancillary services, such as frequency control regulation, this means that new technologies to perform ancillary services need to be developed and evaluated.
