Electric vehicle (EV) deployment provides an opportunity to reduce emissions in Texas, which has the greatest transportation emissions in the United States. This study aims to evaluate the impact of light-duty EV (LDEV) adoption through Switch-ERCOT, a generation capacity expansion model of the Texas power grid (ERCOT). Particularly, this work investigates how various LDEV adoption rates and charging strategies (managed and unmanaged) affect the electricity generation capacity mix, hourly dispatch, transmission capacity, carbon emissions, and utility costs in ERCOT. Results suggest that 50% to 100% LDEV adoption by 2050 increases electricity generation and storage capacity, in turn increasing costs by 2.4% or 6.5%, depending on the ado...
