Abstract

This paper systematically reviews the techniques and dynamics to study uncertainty modelling in the electric grids considering electric vehicles with vehicle-to-grid integration. Uncertainty types and the most frequent uncertainty modelling approaches for electric vehicles are outlined. The modelling approaches discussed in this paper are Monte Carlo, probabilistic scenarios, stochastic, point estimate method and robust optimisation. Then, Scopus is used to search for articles, and according to these categories, data from articles are extracted. The findings suggest that the probabilistic techniques are the most widely applied, with Monte Carlo and scenario analysis leading. In particular, 19% of the cases benefit from Monte Carlo, 15% from scenario analysis, and 10% each from robust optimisation and the stochastic approach, respectively. Early articles consider robust optimisation relatively more frequent, possibly due to the lack of historical data, while more recent articles adopt the Monte Carlo simulation approach. The uncertainty handling techniques depend on the uncertainty type and human resource availability in aggregate but are unrelated to the generation type. Finally, future directions are given.
