Priority Based Coordinated Electric Vehicle Charging System for Heterogeneous Traffic

subject

description

Despite the environmental and health merits associated with Electric vehicles (EVs), a massive deployment of EVs tends to create new technical and economic challenges for power systems. This is being addressed with different coordinated charging schemes where the charging coordination is distributed across multiple EVs and/or aggregators based on different objectives. This work analyzes an algorithm which maximize the operational profit of a charging station with a high charging station utilization while adhering all the constraints enforced by the utility grid. And it is analyzed the performance of the coordinated charging scheme which facilitates heterogeneous EV users whose arrival is uncertain to utilize the charging station when the privileged users do not use it. The proposed algorithm is based on demand side management along with a demand limit. With the proposed coordinated charging strategies, charging station utilization can be maintained always above 0.95.
