Electric vehicles (EVs) and heat pumps (HPs) are key in reducing carbon emissions from transportation and domestic heating, yet their adoption may increase peak load demands on electrical networks. One of the aims of this research is to assess the po...

An approach for energy management of renewable energy sources using electric vehicles and heat pumps in an integrated electricity grid system (2023)
Journal Article
Dik, A., Kutlu, C., Omer, S., Boukhanouf, R., Su, Y., & Riffat, S. (2023). An approach for energy management of renewable energy sources using electric vehicles and heat pumps in an integrated electricity grid system. Energy and Buildings, 294, Article 113261. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2023.113261

The demand for electricity has been increasing worldwide and it is predicted that this trend will be particularly reinforced in developing countries by the gradual electrification of the transport sector and heat generation in buildings. The energy... Read More about An approach for energy management of renewable energy sources using electric vehicles and heat pumps in an integrated electricity grid system.

Electric Vehicles: V2G for Rapid, Safe, and Green EV Penetration (2022)
Journal Article
Dik, A., Omer, S., & Boukhanouf, R. (2022). Electric Vehicles: V2G for Rapid, Safe, and Green EV Penetration. Energies, 15(3), Article 803. https://doi.org/10.3390/en15030803

Low carbon and renewable energy sources (RESs) are fast becoming a key sustainable instrument in meeting the global growth of electricity demand while curbing carbon emissions. For example, the gradual displacement of fossil-fuelled vehicles with ele... Read More about Electric Vehicles: V2G for Rapid, Safe, and Green EV Penetration.

Decarbonising our transport system: Vehicle use behaviour analysis to assess the potential of transitioning to electric mobility
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Waldron, J., Rodrigues, L., Gillott, M., Naylor, S., & Shipman, R. (2020, September). Decarbonising our transport system: Vehicle use behaviour analysis to assess the potential of transitioning to electric mobility. Presented at 35th PLEA Conference on Passive and Low Energy Architecture (PLEA 2020). Planning Post Carbon Cities, A Coruna, Spain

The transport sector is responsible for over 20% of the global carbon emissions. One of the strategies to reduce its impact includes transitioning to electric vehicles (EV). However, this represents several challenges to existing cities, such as the...
