arXiv:2608.18126v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study evaluates the potential of electric vehicle (EV) charging flexibility to enhance both energy efficiency and power grid stability. Using real-world data from public charging stations in Prague, we analyze individual and aggregated charging sessions to explore how optimizing charging times can reduce energy waste, minimize grid imbalances, and support the integration of renewable energy. By aligning EV charging with periods of lower grid demand and higher renewable generation, we demonstrate a significant improvement in energy efficiency, reduc ing the need for costly system support and ancillary services. Our findings suggest that cooperation between power distributors and transmission system operators can unlock new opportunities for maintaining grid stability while promoting sustainable energy use in an increasingly uncertain energy landscape.
