Abstract
This chapter deals with the energy requirements to fulfill electric vehicles (EV) charging needs and assesses the impact of EV demand on the system daily and yearly load diagrams. The parameters (deterministic and stochastic) defining the additional EV demand are presented in detail. The impact of the additional charging demand on the system load curve is assessed for five EU countries (UK, Germany, Spain, Portugal, and Greece).
