A Reference Architecture for Interoperable Reservation Systems in Electric Vehicle Charging

Electric Vehicle Charging Modeling

With an electrified passenger transportation fleet, carbon dioxide emissions could be reduced significantly depending on the electric power production mix. Increased electric power consumption due to electric vehicle charging demands of electric vehicle fleets may be met by increased amount of renewable power production in the electrical systems. With electric vehicle fleets in the transportati...

Impacts of Electric Vehicle Charging on Electric Power Distribution Systems

Hybrid Photovoltaic Systems with Accumulation—Support for Electric Vehicle Charging

The paper presents the concept of a hybrid power system with additional energy storage to support electric vehicles (EVs) charging stations. The aim is to verify the possibilities of mutual cooperation of individual elements of the system from the point of view of energy balances and to show possibilities of utilization of accumulation for these purposes using mathematical modeling. The descrip...

Model Predictive Control for Electric Vehicle Charging

In this paper we present a model predictive control algorithm for scheduling electric vehicle charging. The model accounts for distribution network constraints and seeks to minimize the cost of procuring energy from the real-time market for electric vehicle charging. We present a case study for an IEEE test case distribution system.

Market Interfaces for Electric Vehicle Charging

We consider settings where owners of electric vehicles (EVs) participate in a market mechanism to charge their vehicles. Existing work on such mechanisms has typically assumed that participants are fully rational and can report their preferences accurately via some interface to the mechanism or to a software agent participating on their behalf. However, this may not be reasonable in settings wi...
