Demand side management of electric vehicle car parks to increase integrated solar power capacity within an existing radial distribution network
نویسندگان
چکیده
The amount of integrated solar power generation capacity within the UK distribution networks is expected to continue to increase within the next few years. However, the grid has a fixed power transfer capacity, and to avoid the extra cost of power system upgrade or curtailment of renewable power, it would be necessary to store the surplus power from such nondispatchable renewable resources using appropriate energy storage technologies. In this work, a novel control strategy based on extended optimal power flow is introduced to control the charging of electric vehicles located at car parks to increase the solar power generation capacity within a radial distribution network while satisfying the power system constraints and electric vehicle user requirements.

Energy cost minimization in an electric vehicle solar charging station via dynamic programming
Environmental crisis and shortage of fossil fuels make Electric Vehicles (EVs) alternatives for conventional vehicles. With growing numbers of EVs, the coordinated charging is necessary to prevent problems such as large peaks and power losses for grid and to minimize charging costs of EVs for EV owners. Therefore, this paper proposes an optimal charging schedule based on Dynamic Programming (DP...

With wider deployment of the plug-in electric vehicle (PEV), a power distribution network operator (DNO) would expect increasing domestic demand due to large numbers of vehicles charging. This could lead potentially to overloading of power system assets unless appropriate demand side management is in place. The UK coalition government has made a commitment to increase the amount of renewable ge...
متن کاملHow to integrate electric vehicles in the future energy system?
Main challenges within the energy system of tomorrow are more volatile, less controllable and at the same time more decentralized electricity generation. Furthermore, the increasing research and development activities on electric vehicles (EV) make a significant share of electric vehicles within the passenger car fleet in 2030 more and more likely. This will lead to a further increase of power ...
