Stochastic Analyses of Electric Vehicle Charging Impacts on Distribution Network

摘要

A stochastic modeling and simulation technique for analyzing impacts of electric vehicles charging demands on distribution network is proposed in this paper. Different from the previous deterministic approaches, the feeder daily load models, electric vehicle start charging time, and battery state of charge used in the impact study are derived from actual measurements and survey data. Distribution operation security risk information, such as over-current and under-voltage, is obtained from three-phase distribution load flow studies that use stochastic parameters drawn from Roulette wheel selection. Voltage and congestion impact indicators are defined and a comparison of the deterministic and stochastic analytical approaches in providing information required in distribution network reinforcement planning is presented. Numerical results illustrate the capability of the proposed stochastic models in reflecting system losses and security impacts due to electric vehicle integrations. The effectiveness of a controlled charging algorithm aimed at relieving the system operation problem is also presented.
