The PlanGridEV distribution grid simulation tool with EV models

摘要

This paper presents a new simulation tool which studies the impact of the deployment of electric vehicles in distribution networks. The tool optimizes the operation of the system and is based on grid operation simulation, which takes the flexibility of controllable resources into account. The problem is tackled as an optimal power flow problem. The tool allows modelling the different kinds of distributed energy resources. The different components of the model are first presented. Then, the inputs are described and some outputs are shown.
