Communication needs

Communication requirements

Public charging

Locate and reserve charging station

High availability, service differentiation may be required

Load balancing among neighboring stations

QoS requirements increases with EV population

Residential charging

Respond to price updates to minimize charging cost

Part of AMI network (see [85])

Valley filling to better utilize power generation

Price updates sent every 15 min. Requirements for AMI hold

Energy trading via V2G

Sell part of stored energy to make profit or use stored energy during peak hours

High security and availability

Decrease the volume of storage medium needed by purchasing energy from EV fleets

The same as EV perspective
