Abstract
A statistical model to calculate dynamic, electric vehicle (EV) charging loads at public hubs, which can be used with building simulation tools is presented; it was generated using two, real datasets and shown to faithfully recreate the characteristics of charging seen in the monitored data. The model was used with a building simulation tool to assess the ability of rooftop PV with battery buffering to mitigate the effects of urban EV charging for a charging hub and car park in Glasgow, Scotland. The car park’s 200 kW PV array could fully-offset the demand of a fleet of approximately 50 vehicles. The addition of a small buffering battery (<100 kWh) significantly increased utilization of renewable energy, and reduced grid energy exchanges, but did little to mitigate peak demands.
