Bio
Current work involves understanding EV consumer behavior as it relates to driving behavior through driver’s EV activity space, charging preferences, and integration of technology devices (such as mobile phones, car navigation, web maps, etc) in altering their behavior. This information is helping put together a GIS planning toolbox to assist policy makers, utilities and planners on optimal EV infrastructure network. Other interests include the interaction between EVs, charging infrastructure and the smart grid. More specifically how peoples choices and decisions on driving patters and charging patterns impact the smart grid, and how well designed information feedback systems can influence and possibly change EV owners behaviors especially to reduce grid impacts and maximize renewable energy potential.
