This work aims at analyzing the integration between electric mobility and renewable energy sources studying the case of the grid-connected microgrid under construction at the University of Trieste, Italy. A general model able to estimate the charging price and the resulting total cost of ownership per kilometer considering the match between the demand and the production of a photovoltaic generator is presented. The result is that the electric vehicle is mainly charged with the produced renewable energy (72%) and that the 60% of it flows through the storage unit. The study also presents a sensitivity analysis to show how the battery size and cost, together with the travelled distance, influence the charging price and the total cost of ownership per kilometer. Considering the current Italian prices and subsidies, results show that the use of an electric car is today feasible

Abstract

This work aims at analyzing the integration between electric mobility and renewable energy sources studying the case of the grid-connected microgrid under construction at the University of Trieste, Italy. A general model able to estimate the charging price and the resulting total cost of ownership per kilometer considering the match between the demand and the production of a photovoltaic generator is presented. The result is that the electric vehicle is mainly charged with the produced renewable energy (72%) and that the 60% of it flows through the storage unit. The study also presents a sensitivity analysis to show how the battery size and cost, together with the travelled distance, influence the charging price and the total cost of ownership per kilometer. Considering the current Italian prices and subsidies, results show that the use of an electric car is today feasible
