Abstract

AbstractElectrified vehicles (EVs) couple transportation and electrical infrastructures, impacting vehicle sustainability, transportation resiliency, and electrical grid stability. These impacts occur across timescales; grid stability at the millisecond scale, resiliency at the daily scale, and sustainability over years and decades. Integrated models of these systems must share data to explore timescale dependencies, and reveal unanticipated outcomes. This paper examines EV adoption for sustainability, resiliency, and stability effects. Sustainability findings, consistent with previous studies, indicate that electrification generally reduces lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and increases SOx and NOx. Electrified vehicles enhance vehicle resiliency (ability of vehicle to complete typical trips during fuel outage). Coupled results enhance EV resilience research, finding that a 16-km (10-mi) all-electric range plug-in hybrid EV improves resiliency ∼50% versus a gasoline-only vehicle. Increasing EV m...
