Dr. 丹妮拉Touma，哈佛大学助理教授 电气与计算机工程 at the 十大彩票网投平台, is using a National Science Foundation grant to predict power demands 在车辆到电网技术的发展.

V2G, as it’s known, allows plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles to push power back 到电网，协助电网在高峰时段. 这种灵活性解决了 the fear that the increasing number of electric vehicles could strain the electrical grid in states such as Texas, which has been put under pressure by winter storms and 夏天热.

Touma will use artificial intelligence algorithms in a laboratory simulation to forecast 电动车的使用模式. 

“A lot of people are concerned that with so many vehicles on the grid, we might not 能够为一切提供动力，”她说. “当我们谈论V2G时，它是电动的一种方式 车辆帮助电网. 当你不用车的时候，你的电池 能给你家里的电器供电吗. 然后，它可以在 是时候使用你的车了，这样当你需要的时候它就满了.”

“We’ve got all these vehicles connected to charging stations all night at home, or 整天都在工作，所以为什么不把这个能力用起来呢? 电动汽车有一个大电池， 所以这是一个很大的优势.”

6月，图马获得了美国国家科学基金会199,000美元的奖金. 她和她的研究生助理都是 working on the laboratory simulation and surveying Mobile area residents and utility companies about their policies, practices and attitudes toward electric vehicles and 汽车电网功能.

She is collaborating on data collection with Marianne Loes, an instructor in marketing 和定量方法中的 米切尔商学院.

The research is focused on the Gulf Coast, a region of the country that has hardly begun to explore alternatives to internal combustion vehicles. 到2022年， 到美国.S. Department of Energy, there were 8,700 electric cars registered in the state of Alabama, along with 4,400 plug-in hybrid vehicles — or, about 0.3% 道路上的轻型车辆.

Touma’s questions for Mobile consumers include, “What is your commuting distance?” “你什么时候上班和下班??”“你采取了什么措施来减少你的体重 电费帐单?”

Questions for utility companies include, “What are your incentives for motivating your customers to move their energy consumption to periods outside peak hours?”“如何 你是否在高峰时段管理额外的电力需求?”

“A lot of people still think the grid is not prepared for electric vehicles,” Touma 说. “That’s why we need these studies, looking at how EVs can help the grid.”

Touma still remembers, several years ago, when she first read an article about V2G 在技术期刊上.

 “When I saw that, I thought, ‘This is an area for research,’” she 说. “它帮助 双方. 它帮助电网运行，帮助客户省钱. 这是非常重要的. We’re engineers trying to solve problems, so we need programs people want to use.”
