UCLA MAE Professor Rajit Gadh was recently featured in Courthouse News Service, and on USC Annenberg TV News.
In the Courthouse News Service article “Caltech research on ‘smart grid’ explores how 100% green energy can meet growing demand“, Prof. Gadh was mentioned as follows:
Rajit Gadh, the director of UCLA’s Smart Grid Energy Research Center, for example, said in an interview this month with a university publication that some of the newer EVs on the market have the ability to discharge power into the grid and that, if all of the current 1 million EVs on the road in California were outfitted with this capability and appropriate financial incentives existed, the battery resources of these EVs combined would be able to provide a reserve support for the grid during peak hours on extreme heat days when energy is most needed.
On USC Annenberg TV News, Prof. Gadh was interviewed about Hurricane Fiona.
