Abstract

The number of electric vehicles (EV) on the roads, as well as the share of EVs in use, will inevitably increase in coming decades. This creates a number of problems. A large EV fleet is a significant additional load in the power system that is impossible to accurately predict. Another related problem is the limited distribution network capacity, which is not ready for the additional load from the widespread EV infrastructure. There is a need for an EV charging coordination algorithm capable of fulfilling the charging EV needs, while using as low demanded power as possible and using the lowest power values in each EV charging profile. We propose an EV coordinating algorithm that is capable of ensuring that all connected EVs in the considered parking lot will be charged at the user-defined departure time. The algorithm also controls the charging/discharging power of every connected EV in such a way that the parking lot as a whole will use minimal possible peak power while minimizing the charging power of every EV. The proposed algorithm is also capable of responding to demand response (DR) signals. The paper also includes the results of simulation with a statistical summary of the proposed algorithm effectiveness.
