Abstract

It takes electric vehicles (EVs) a long time to charge, which is bound to influence the charging experience of vehicle owners. At the same time, large-scale charging behavior also brings about large load pressure on, and elevates the overload risk of, the power distribution network. To solve these problems, we proposed a high-efficiency charging service system based on charging reservation and charging pile binding services. The system can shorten the average charging time of EVs and improve the average immediate utilization rate of new energy sources at charging stations (CSs). In addition, the system also guarantees that the EVs are charged within the allowable range of the capacity of the distribution network and avoids overloading of the distribution network caused by the charging of EVs. The key support for the utility of the system is rooted in the three-level CS selection model and the CS energy control algorithm (CSECA) proposed in the research. Finally, the proposed model and algorithm were verified to be valid through numerous simulation experiments.
