Utilizing Local Flexibility Resources to Mitigate Grid Challenges at Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Charging of electric vehicles (EVs) on a large scale can cause problems for the grid. Utilizing local flexibility resources, such as smart charging, stationary battery, vehicle-to-grid applications, and generation be an efficient way to contain grid challenges mitigate need reinforcement. Focusing INSPIRIA charging station located in Norway, this paper investigates possibility coping with imminent by means flexibility. First, potential are estimated help Monte Carlo simulations. Second, cost performance various sources presented. Third, analysis choice process, battery economy provided. Finally, discusses optimal mix resources efficiently at station.
