چکیده
Abstract: The rollout of electric vehicles substantially changes the requirements for current power grid infrastructures. The high power demand of fast recharge stations in combination with a high risk of simultaneity leads to the necessity of extended ICT integration into the energy distribution process. This paper describes ongoing research on a simulation framework for modeling the communication processes of load coordination scenarios for (fast-) recharge stations. First results are presented for a fair distribution algorithm in a manageable scenario with simultaneously charging electric vehicles in order to validate the simulation environment.
