Study on the assessment of use cases and business models for smart and bidirectional recharging in the context of energy system integration - Publications Office of the EU
demand patterns across the European Union. As electrification progresses across private, commercial, and fleet segments, charging behaviour has become a material factor for peak demand, grid utilization, and system balancing. Within this context, smart charging (SC) and bidirectional charging (BDC) have growing relevance as demand-side flexibility and energy-system integration instruments.
