Abstract

V2G technology in smart grid architecture enables the bidirectional flow of electric energy where a Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) can also discharge energy to the grid from its battery. Thus when a good number of PEVs are available, for instance, in a big parking lot enabled with Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), they form a large distributed energy storage system. A controller which can communicate with such EVSE enabled parking lots can optimally control charging/discharging schedules of each PEV to minimize the peak load demand of the distribution grid. While minimizing the peak demand, our optimization strategy also considers improved distribution of PEV loads throughout the distribution network to minimize the impact in any particular feeder or transformer utilizing mobility information by Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) communications. This novel algorithm of uniform utilization can substantially reduce the need of expensive infrastructure upgrade of power distribution network.
