How do solar-powered EV charging stations determine EV power demand?
The study is conducted on the IEEE 33-bus distribution system, with five solar-powered EV charging stations strategically connected at buses 8, 13, 21, 23, and 27. EV arrival time, departure time, and distance travelled, are key input parameter that are utilized to accurately determine EV power demand.
Are solar-powered EV charging stations sustainable?
Solar-powered EV charging stations offer a sustainable and reliable alternative to traditional charging infrastructure, significantly alleviating stress on legacy grid systems. However, the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources poses a challenge for energy management in power distribution networks.
Why are solar charging stations a problem?
High penetration of solar-powered charging stations leads to overloading in the transformer which increases transformer heating temperature and may lead to its loss of life. Moreover, uncertainties in solar power and randomness associated with EV demand, user’s behaviour and battery specification, bring extra challenges to this problem.
What is a photovoltaic-energy storage-integrated charging station (PV-es-I CS)?
As shown in Fig. 1, a photovoltaic-energy storage-integrated charging station (PV-ES-I CS) is a novel component of renewable energy charging infrastructure that combines distributed PV, battery energy storage systems, and EV charging systems.
Can solar energy supply and EV charging Demand be matched?
This intermittency can lead to a mismatch between solar energy supply and EV charging demand, particularly during peak usage hours or periods of low irradiance . Consequently, effective strategies such as ESS and smart charging algorithms are required to balance supply–demand dynamics and maintain grid stability.
How to calculate energy storage investment cost?
The total investment cost of the energy storage system for each charging station can be calculated by multiplying the investment cost per kWh of the energy storage system by the capacity of the batteries used for energy storage.
