A New Control Strategy for Energy Management of Bidirectional Chargers for Electric Vehicles to Minimize Peak Load in Low-Voltage Grids with PV Generation

This paper introduces a new bidirectional vehicle-to-grid (V2G) control strategy for energy management of V2G charging points equipped with photovoltaic systems (PVs), considering the interaction between chargers, electric vehicle (EV) owners, and network operator. The proposed method aims to minimize peak load, grid infeed power, feeder loading, transformer loading by scheduling EVs discharging. simulation experiments take into account three EV battery capacities as well two levels penetration. In order validate effectiveness approach, five scenarios are studied in single low-voltage (LV) distribution DIgSILENT PowerFactory, which comprises combination residential commercial loads PV systems. Simulation results demonstrate that improves paper’s objectives providing ancillary services grid.
