Integration of Electric Vehicles in Low-Voltage Distribution Networks Considering Voltage Management

Low-Voltage Distribution Network Reconfiguration Considering High Penetration of Electric Vehicles – A UK Case Study

Network reconfiguration is one of the electricity network optimization techniques for losses reduction and load balancing by changing the open-closed status of sectionalized switches. In this paper, an application of network reconfiguration in low-voltage (LV) domestic distribution network with high penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) is presented. Firstly, high resolution time-series domest...

Significant Characteristics of Multi Carrier Energy Networks for Integration of Plug-In Electric Vehicles to Electric Distribution Network

One of the big concerns of big cities is facing with the increase of fossil fuel vehicles in the roads. The cars intensify greenhouse gas emission in civic centers. One approach to reduce the emission is replacing the cars by Plug-In Electric Vehicles (PEVs). In spite of reducing the emission, PEVs have some adverse effect on electric distribution networks. Technical challenges such as load and...

Voltage Balance Improvement in Urban Low Voltage Distribution Networks

Planning of Distribution Networks for Medium Voltage and Low Voltage

Stochastic Assessment of Voltage Sags in Distribution Networks

This paper compares fault position and Monte Carlo methods as the most common methods in stochastic assessment of voltage sags. To compare their abilities, symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults with different probability distribution of fault positions along the lines are applied in a test system. The voltage sag magnitude in different nodes of test system is calculated. The problem with the...
