Willing to participate in vehicle-to-grid (V2G)? Why not!

Abstract: The predominant strategy to reduce CO2 emissions in the transport sector is its renewable based electrification. It implies mobile storages that could – during long phases of immobility – provide services for the electricity sector. However, this technical option – called vehicle-to-grid (V2G) – requires the vehicle users to temporarily abstain from the usage of their batteries for V2G. A reasonable estimate of the potential of V2G thus considers which individual, technical and economic parameters are decisive for the willingness of vehicle users to participate. To answer these questions a representative sample of vehicle users in Germany has been surveyed – including a discrete choice experiment.
