Cover Story: Electric vehicles (EVs) and photovoltaics (PV) are crucial elements of future power systems, though their integration presents challenges. This study assesses the synergies between EVs and PV systems to optimize solar energy utilization for EV charging. Three configurations are explored: a) charging via the national grid, b) vehicle-mounted PVs, and c) chargers connected to residential PVs. These options are evaluated in two urban environments with large EV fleets and dissimilar weather conditions: Berlin and Los Angeles. Using dynamic simulations, the study analyzes energy, environmental, and economic performance. The findings reveal that residential PV systems outperform current vehicle-mounted solar technologies in both cities, while both solutions offer significant benefits over grid-based charging. View this paper
