Bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) and infrastructure technologies enable EVs to serve as mobile energy storage resources, provide services to buildings, and enhance resilience of urban energy systems during power outages. Toward enabling electric vehicle-to-everything (V2X) power solutions, this project will develop methods for holistic transportation, residential, and other commercial energy use management to enhance urban environmental sustainability. The research plan will advance systems science at the transportation-energy nexus by (1) creating coupled electric vehicle and residential/office energy use profiles that capture alternative management objectives and EV drivers preferences, (2) developing EV one-way and bidirectional infrastructure location decision-making models that center on distributive equity, and (3) modeling of EVs as distributed resources and assessing their services during power outages that are exacerbated by climate change. This research envisions urban electrified transportation systems with management of bidirectional energy exchanges and infrastructure deployment for urban environmental sustainability, equity, and resilience. The integrated education and policy outreach plans include (1) providing research opportunities in energy data analytics and applied optimization to diverse undergraduate students, (2) organizing a Midwest Sustainable Transportation Datathon, and (3) communicating the research methods and outcomes to policymakers and practitioners through an EV Steering Committee that enables research-practice feedback loops.The research approach includes data fusion and curation for the creation of a new dataset coupling US travel patterns and residential energy use characteristics as well as benchmarking bidirectional power profiles under various EV management objectives and preferences such as cost minimization, pro-environmental attitudes, valley filling and peak saving. Optimization models and solution algorithms will be developed for one-way and bidirectional EV charging infrastructure location modeling, integrating distributive equity objectives for ubiquitous EV infrastructure and sustainable mobility access. Consideration of the bidirectional EVs services provided during power outages will include the development of new resilience metrics for the coupled EV and residential energy use systems, at both the residential household and the community scales.Results from the project are targeted to provide EV infrastructure providers, utilities, and policymakers the engineering means to model and manage bidirectional EV energy exchanges based on environmental sustainability, equity, and resilience objectives. A policy outreach program with media resources on electric vehicle-to-everything demand, infrastructure deployment and management will be developed. Research insights will be distributed to a group of 50 stakeholders via the EV Steering Committee. The project will engage a diverse group of undergraduate and graduate research assistants at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in the transportation and energy fields, offering a multidisciplinary STEM research experience. The integrated education plan involves organizing a Datathon that mobilizes an ecosystem of academics, national laboratory researchers, and public agencies to come together and provide data-driven tools for educating the workforce of the future.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

双向电动汽车(EV)和基础设施技术使电动汽车能够作为移动储能资源，为建筑物提供服务，并增强城市能源系统在停电时的弹性。为了实现电动汽车到一切(V2X)电源解决方案，该项目将开发整体交通、住宅和其他商业能源使用管理方法，以增强城市环境的可持续性。该研究计划将通过(1)创建耦合的电动汽车和住宅/办公室能源使用概况，以捕捉替代管理目标和电动汽车司机的偏好，(2)开发以分配公平为中心的电动汽车单向和双向基础设施选址决策模型，以及(3)将电动汽车建模为分布式资源，并在气候变化加剧的停电期间评估其服务，从而推动交通-能源关系的系统科学。这项研究设想城市电气化交通系统具有双向能量交换管理和基础设施部署，以实现城市环境的可持续性、公平性和弹性。综合教育和政策推广计划包括(1)向不同的本科生提供能源数据分析和应用优化方面的研究机会，(2)组织中西部可持续交通数据马拉松，(3)通过支持研究-实践反馈循环的电动汽车指导委员会向政策制定者和从业者传达研究方法和结果。研究方法包括数据融合和管理，以创建一个新的数据集，将美国的出行模式和住宅能源使用特征结合在一起，并根据各种电动汽车管理目标和偏好，如成本最小化、环保态度、填谷和节能高峰，对双向电力概况进行基准测试。将为单向和双向电动汽车充电基础设施位置建模开发优化模型和解决方案算法，整合泛在电动汽车基础设施和可持续移动接入的分配公平目标。对停电期间提供的双向电动汽车服务的考虑将包括为居民家庭和社区规模的电动汽车和住宅能源使用系统开发新的弹性指标。该项目的结果旨在为电动汽车基础设施提供商、公用事业公司和政策制定者提供工程手段，以基于环境可持续性、公平性和弹性目标来建模和管理双向电动汽车能源交换。将制定一个政策外联计划，利用有关电动汽车到一切的需求、基础设施部署和管理的媒体资源。研究见解将通过电动汽车指导委员会分发给由50名利益相关者组成的小组。该项目将在伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校聘请不同的本科生和研究生研究助理，从事交通和能源领域的研究，提供多学科的STEM研究经验。综合教育计划包括组织一次数据马拉松，动员学者、国家实验室研究人员和公共机构的生态系统走到一起，为未来的劳动力教育提供数据驱动的工具。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
