Power Quality Impact of Electric and Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles
نویسندگان
چکیده
The continued increase of gas prices and concerns on greenhouse gas emissions in recent years have led to the steadily increasing acceptance of electric vehicles (EVs), especially the plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), by consumers. It seems that PHEVs are poised to become a serious contender for a noticeable share of the car market in the near future. As PHEV draws power through power electric circuits from the utility grid when it is being charged, utility companies are concerned with the potential power quality impact of mass penetration of PHEVs. This project was conducted to address this concern, i.e. to determine the collective impact of PHEVs on the power quality of primary and secondary distribution systems. The overall objective of the project is to provide technical information and assessment results to develop a proactive strategy to deal with the emergence of this new type of loads in residential areas of power distribution systems.
