Optimization Methods for Evaluating PEV Charging Considering Customer Behavior
- BATTELLE (PACIFIC NW LAB)
Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) can be connected to grid through electrical vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) to provide various grid services in addition to battery charging. This paper evaluates loading condition of a distribution system with a medium penetration of PEVs considering different charging strategies and public EVSE availability. A mobility and charging flexibility model is proposed to capture PEVs’ temporal availability and varying charging capability at different parking locations. Detailed trip information extracted from the National Household Travel Survey is used to represent travel and parking patterns. An optimization method is then proposed to coordinate PEV charging to effectively shift load from peak to off-peak hours. One of the prototypical feeders developed by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory is studied in different scenarios.
