Abstract
Smart grids can be a good challenge for the near future if they are intelligently managed. Therefore, the exploitation of the energy resources distributed into a network is one of the most discussed themes in actual scientific literature, together with the attention paid to power quality (PQ) improvement. This paper aims to provide a possible solution to some common and dangerous PQ problems and voltage sags, considering the large diffusion of electric vehicles. A deep energy and power analysis to evaluate the feasibility of the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) function to compensate for PQ disturbances will be presented.Keywords
