User-driven potential for scalable, cost-effective, and flexible vehicle-to-grid resources in China.
Article in iScience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology is widely recognized for enhancing power system flexibility and supporting renewable energy integration. However, assessments of its cost effectiveness based on user willingness and its response capability under real-world conditions remain limited. This study evaluates the flexibility potential and economic performance of V2G in China by incorporating user preferences and regional heterogeneity. Using a discrete choice experiment (DCE) with 1,412 electric vehicle (EV) owners, we estimate user willingness to accept (WTA) and quantify V2G potential. Results show that V2G could provide up to 348 GW of flexibility, exceeding 11 times the current national energy storage capacity. Under emergency demand response scenarios, V2G is cost-competitive, with WTA around half that of conventional storage. However, WTA varies substantially ($0.14-$0.85 per kWh) and is sensitive to temperature, with winter conditions reducing participation by 21% and increasing costs by 17%. These findings highlight the need for behavior-aware policy and market design.
