Abstract

Distribution grid will be greatly influenced when large scale electric vehicles are simultaneously charged or discharged. Firstly, the assumptions related to the charging and discharging power of EVs are discussed, and the probability of daily driving distance is examined. Secondly, the probability models of charging time, duration and power are studied, and the probability models of discharging time, duration and power are built according to the driving pattern of X city in China and the national household travel survey of America in 2001. Then, the probability equation of single electric vehicle’s hourly charging and discharging power is derived. After that, the mathematical expectation of above probability equation is solved by Monte Carlo method. Finally, the impact of large scale charging and discharging electric vehicles on the daily load of X city is analyzed. The results provide the theoretical foundation for the application of large scale electric vehicles in X city.
