Document Description
The team will demonstrate and evaluate the performance of a mixed fleet of 6 bi-directional plug-in hybrid electric vehicle vans and approx 34 uni-directional plug in electric vehicle sedans, as well as the 30 charging stations associated with the fleet. These resources will facilitate providing aggregated demand management for the base and simulated participation in current retail and wholesale demand response programs. This effort will allow the project stream to demonstrate and study the performance of the resource in participating in both current and proposed program and configurations. Each flexible load function will be demonstrated and tested for periods of 1-3 months. Flexible load applications will include demand management, demand response, and frequency regulation for which the team will leverage automatic generation control signals collected at LA AFB for their DOD vehicle to grid project.
