In this paper we present an easy-to-implement model that allows to determine the potential energy savings of regenerative braking (also: recuperation) for Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) by exploiting Inter-Vehicle Communication (IVC). The proposed model has been designed to be applied within different braking scenarios: approaching traffic lights, stop-and-go, emergency brakes, or platooning, among others. Furthermore, the model has been implemented in MATLAB allowing not only to simulate numerous braking scenarios but also to extend it by adding IVC-related parameters like latency or packet-loss. The corresponding results can be carried over to large-scale scenarios by taking into account different equipment rates of both the number of EVs and the availability of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).
