Energy management of micro renewable energy source and electric vehicles at home level

As renewable energy source (RES) tend to be integrated more and more at home and electric vehicles (EVs) take a greater share in the personal automobile market, users see a chance to charge their EVs by micro-RES. In this context, this paper presents a review about opportunities and challenges needed to be overcome by the EV users to implement a vehicle to home system in their homes, as well as the integration of micro-RES. Several practical scenarios are presented, with different demand profiles, by integrating renewable energy that could be used to charge the EV.
