The Game of Own: exploring the impact of charging stations ownership on the potential of V2G

Research Project, 2025 – 2027

This project examines the impacts of charging station ownership models on the potential of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. Based on real-world and synthetic data in the transport and energy sectors, this project establishes a comprehensive understanding of the charging station market and charging patterns. The research focuses on how commercial and public operators can optimize operational strategies to balance profit and social objectives, including grid management and gender equity in EV usage. An innovative approach will study competitive dynamics between different ownerships, operational objectives, and their socioeconomic impacts. Findings will inform strategic planning for charging infrastructure, aiming to improve sustainability, accessibility, and efficiency in the transport and energy sectors. Total project funding is 4.9 million SEK.
