Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of this research is to increase the efficiency of the charging station, which is to meet the demand of energy for charging the batteries of electric vehicles without exceeding the limits of the grid restrictions. Methodology. The model of a controlled charging system was considered to study the efficiency of charging stations with the quantitative connection of electric vehicles to the charger under conditions of power limitation. Results. The load graph during the controlled charging method does not exceed the set limit voltage and power consumption settings, but with the uncontrolled method there is an overload of 16% during peak hours. The main disadvantage of the conventional method of charging with restrictions is that EVs that have been connected to the charging slots later than other EVs, were not charged in conditions of limited power supply. The charging stations require a charging system that does not have such a disadvantage – it is necessary that almost all connected electric vehicles fill their required level of charge and meet the limitations of the network at the same time. Investigating such a system is the task of future research. Originality. Every year the number of electric vehicles in Ukraine is growing rapidly. This also determines the development of a network of charging stations, both commercial and for domestic use. According to the Rules for the use of electricity, the contract for electricity consumption specifies the allowable capacity for the household or enterprise. Violation of this limit may cause the facility to become disconnected from the power supply with additional penalties. Practical value. The solutions to the problem of charging a large number of EVs are mainly based on different types of planning and creating a profile of their charging scenarios with technical limitations. These restrictions depend on the situation of the charging station (the number of connected EVs, their charging levels, the possibility of simultaneous charging for a few EVs, and the declared charging time). The charging period convenient for the EV owner and the network load schedule may conflict. The development of a realtime charging control system should provide each EV guaranteed charging even in conditions of limited power consumption. References 13, tables 4, figures 18.
