Electric Vehicles Under Low Temperatures: A Review on Battery Performance, Charging Needs, and Power Grid Impacts

Murat Senol et al.

Summary: Electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining popularity as countries strive for net-zero carbon targets. However, the performance of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries used in EVs degrades at low temperatures. Existing literature and industry applications lack research on the impact of suboptimal weather conditions on EV operation and their effects on power networks. Addressing these research gaps is crucial for facilitating mass EV adoption and charging station roll-out.
