Grid-safe integration of e-mobility - why battery electric vehicles save us from blackout

The smarter E Podcast Episode 91 | May 5, 2022 | Language: German

Due to the rising number of new registrations of e-vehicles, the need for charging infrastructure will continue to grow in the coming years and the grid integration of electromobility will become increasingly important. In particular, the successful integration of private charging infrastructure represents not only a challenge but also an opportunity for sector coupling if it can be integrated into the power grid in a way that serves the grid. On which points is there already a cross-sector consensus with regard to grid integration? What foundations need to be laid so that both the reliability and plannability of grid integration of private as well as public-access charging infrastructure is increased compared to the current status quo and technological innovations are given the necessary leeway? Markus Wunsch, Head of E-Mobility Power System Integration at Netze BW, reveals this and more.
