Abstract: Electric vehicles, including both PEVs and PHEVs have been recently interested to a large extent in global markets due to their capabilities. These plug-in vehicles are able to absorb/inject power from/to the electric grid that turns them into an interesting solution for the power systems. However, large numbers of such plug-in vehicles can be a threaten to power systems. In this regard, it seems necessary to investigate the problems caused by the uncertain driving nature of such electric vehicles. On the other hand, the opportunities provided by the presence of a large fleet of plug-in vehicles as mobile storage/load should be discussed. For this end, this paper reviews the challanges and the problems caused by charging/discharging of PHEV/PEVs in large numbers and investigates their capabilities as a solution to integrate the RESs and demand response programs in power systems.
