A team of researchers at Stanford University have developed a probabilistic model of electric vehicle charging demand, that will help in managing charging growth, and ensure that electricity grids are reliable and affordable.<\/h2>\n
With an increasing number of consumers buying and using electric vehicles (EVs), there is a growing concern that eventually, the demand for electricity to charge EVs could overwhelm the power grid. Therefore, it is becoming more urgent for the electricity sector to evolve so that it is prepared for this possibility.<\/p>\n
Gaining accurate estimates of charging demand patterns<\/h3>\n
As the fleet of EVs on the road grows, grid planners are increasingly more reliant on precise approximations of charging patterns to calculate electricity demand.<\/p>\n
