Abstract
In this paper, the economic analysis of a real-time power flow control algorithm for charging a large-scale plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) network is proposed. Such a system is in an urban area power system with optimized renewable energy resources in South Florida. In this model, the PEVs charging rates are controlled by a central aggregator through wireless communication. To limit the impact of the PEVs' charging to the utility grid, while optimizing the scheduling of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) frequency regulation services, a V2G intelligent power flow management algorithm based on fuzzy logic control was developed. The smart charging system will improve the power system stability and robustness while bringing benefits to the utility ac grid, the PEVs network, and its customers. An economic analysis model was built with the consideration of the battery degradation and capital cost. The proposed smart charging algorithm was tested with a 50 000 PEVs network model. The simulation results show the effectiveness and economic value of the proposed model.
