Impacts of Electric Vehicle Charging on Electric Power Distribution Systems

Multi-Objective Distribution Network Expansion Incorporating Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Abstract: The paper develops a multi-objective planning framework for distribution network expansion with electric vehicle charging stations. Charging loads are modeled in the first place, and then integrated into the optimal distribution network expansion planning. The formulation is extended from the single objective of the economic cost minimization into three objectives with the additional ...
