Abstract

In developing and underdeveloped countries, the electric power generation doesn’t suffice the electrical energy demand. With no or incorrect peak load controlling schemes, load shedding is very common. Regular unscheduled power outage for hours creates the demand for residential microgrid and the need of home-based standby power supply. Normally, a low-capacity stand-by inverter power supply is used for essential/emergency loads. Electric vehicle batteries have massive energy storage capacity and can be potentially utilized as backup power supply for most of the home loads during load shedding or blackout. Moreover, solar energy can also be utilized to charge plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) to further enhance the backup power for home loads and to make it a residential microgrid. In this work, a fuzzy logic inference system is utilized for efficient power management and utilization of V2H. It imitates the decision-making process of charging/discharging of the PEV battery through priority decision-making of power management and emergency backup power supply of a typical home in developing countries like India.
