Smart Vehicle to Grid Interface Project: Electromobility Management System Architecture and Field Test Results

摘要

This paper presents and discusses the electromobility management systemdeveloped in the context of the SMARTV2G project, enabling the automaticcontrol of plug-in electric vehicles' (PEVs') charging processes. The paperdescribes the architecture and the software/hardware components of theelectromobility management system. The focus is put in particular on theimplementation of a centralized demand side management control algorithm, whichallows remote real time control of the charging stations in the field,according to preferences and constraints expressed by all the actors involved(in particular the distribution system operator and the PEV users). The resultsof the field tests are reported and discussed, highlighting critical issuesraised from the field experience.
