Abstract
Current status of the power industry in China is presented, including the installed capacity and energy mix, power grid construction, and power consumption.
Based on historical data, the installed capacity and power consumption in China are forecasted up to 2050. It is evident that electricity demand for electric vehicles charging can certainly be supplied.
Thereafter, different charging modes and their corresponding power demand are analyzed and calculated. The power rush caused by rapid charging with DC voltage cannot be neglected; thus, orderly charging is required.
The interaction between electric vehicles and the power grid is examined in detail. Electric vehicles charging will inject harmonic currents into the grid; on the other hand, onboard batteries of electric vehicles can serve as a reserve capacity for power grid through vehicle-to-grid technology.
Brief introduction of national standards and policies related to electric vehicles is presented. Conclusions and comments are made about the development of electric vehicles in China.
