Among all sources of CO2 emissions in the UK\, the energy supply accounts for about 40%\, followed by the transport for over 25%. To meet the target of cutting greenhouse ga s emissions by 80% by 2050\, large proportion of electricity generated fro m low carbon sources integrated with mass adoption of electric vehicles (E V) offer a great potential. Likewise\, the Chinese 12th National Economic and Social Development Five-Year Plan has set the target of 3.5% reduction per unit of GDP in both energy use and carbon dioxide emissions\, and ide ntified new energy and clean energy vehicles among the seven priority indu stries in the next five years from 2012. It is clear that both countries a re fully committed to a planned 'decarbonisation' of their respective ener gy systems. However\, both face the challenges of planning and building th e suitable infrastructure and of managing the resources to ensure future p ower systems operate more reliably\, more flexibly\, and more economically \, by integrating and coordinating the actions of all actors. It has been widely recognised that EVs could both benefit from and help to drive forwa rd the development of smart grids where renewable resources are widely and substantially employed. iGIVE is a collaborative UK EPSRC - China NFSC fu nded project\, which aims to investigate and develop a system for more rel iable\, more flexible and efficient and more environmental friendly smart gird solutions for seamless integration of distributed low-carbon intermit tent power generation and large number of EVs. This presentation focuses o n introducing iGIVE and also provides an overview of other renewable energ y projects underway at Queen’s University Belfast.\n\nCo-sponsored by: C EE - DTU Elektro \n\nLyngby\, Kobenhavns Amt\, Denmark LOCATION:Lyngby\, Kobenhavns Amt\, Denmark ORGANIZER: SEQUENCE:0 SUMMARY:[Legacy Report] An introduction to the intelligent grid interfaced vehicle eco-charging (igive) URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/111832 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><h1 id="outercontent_0_content_0_ContentHeadi ng"><span style="font-family: 'book antiqua'\, palatino\; font-size: 8pt\; background-color: #ffffff\;">The UK government is determined to address t he challenges of tackling climate change and maintaining energy security i n a way that minimises costs and maximises benefits to the economy.
