Research Project Title:
Analyzing Electric Vehicle Charging Data to Enhance Efficiency of Demand Response Algorithms
abstract:Electric vehicles will be the future of the automobile industry. Through this project, I want to identify and develop effective charging strategies that minimize costs and the impact on the electric grid. In addition, I hope to explore the economic question of what is preventing electric cars from gaining precedence today. I am also excited to indirectly contribute to the departure of reliance on fossil fuels and the attenuation of climate change.
