Abstract

The increase in the grid connection of electric vehicles (EVs) provides great potential for peak load regulation and valley filling of the grid. In order to solve the challenges brought by the integration of new energy vehicles into the power grid and give full play to the potential of EV demand response, this paper proposes a two-layer optimal dispatch strategy for the “distribution network-charging station” system. First, assess EV load demand response potential. The research area is divided into different functional areas by using the data of urban interest points, and the travel habits of users are analyzed by using EV driving data. On this basis, considering the influencing factors such as EV battery capacity (SOC), charging electricity price and spatial characteristics, the EV load response potential evaluation model is constructed by integrating user electricity price response and charging power response. Secondly, taking the evaluation value of EV response potential as the range of load adjustment, in order to optimizing peak-shaving cooperation among EV charging stations and obtaining the peak-shaving measures of each charging station, a “distribution network-charging station” double-layer optimal dispatch is carried out. The upper-level distribution network scheduling aims at minimizing the unfinished peak shaving rate and distribution network loss, and optimizes the scheduling power allocation of the peak tasks of each charging station. The lower-level charging station scheduling is based on the principle of maximizing user charging satisfaction and charging station economic benefits, and completes the peak-shaving scheduling determined by the superior. Finally, the strategy is applied in a specific area of Shaanxi Province, and the scheduling results show that the strategy is more economically feasible.
