Abstract

The awareness, that significant global warming is being caused by vehicle emissions, is encouraging the transport sector to adopt plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs). As reported in [1, 2], PEVs, as a promising component of sustainable and eco-friendly transportation systems, have received considerable attention recently. The introduction of PEVs into the transport sector can reduce the consumption of conventional energy sources (e.g., gasoline) and the environmental pollution (e.g., greenhouse gas emissions). As reported from industry [1], battery powered EVs, which completely leverage rechargeable batteries and thus produce no emissions, can reduce the overall emissions from the transport sector by 70 %. As such, EVs are being accounted for higher market share in the transport sector. According to the report of Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) [2], by the year 2020, 2030, and 2050, the EV penetration level can reach 35 %, 51 %, and 62 %, respectively.

Footnotes
1
In this monograph, the PEV energy consumed on the road to reach a charging/swapping station is referred to as the travel cost.
 
2
DSRC protocol supports both RSU-to-vehicle/vehicle-to-RSU (R2V/V2R) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication.
 
3
In VANETs, many basic applications are supported in uplink scenario, such as data uploading, email transmission, road traffic reporting, and environment monitoring.
 
4
Note that, in this monograph, the term V2V is used in two different contexts, one for VANET communications among vehicles and the other for energy transfer among PEVs.
