Abstract

Nowadays, electric vehicles (EVs) include electric tram becomes more popular with high promotion from the government. The advantage of EVs is no produces the pollution and environmentally friendly compared with the internal combustion engines. The fast charging EVs as the load of the power distribution system, the large-sized fast charging can bring an effect on the power distribution system. The energy storage systems (ESS) can operate as a generator to balance the power and reduce power load fluctuation. In this paper, the effect to public electric transportation tram fast charging in the power distribution system was studied by a focus on voltage profile and power loss. Optimal strategy of ESS for reducing the peak demand on the power distribution system and reactive power optimization for improving power quality was proposed. By the obtained results with ESS and reactive power, the efficiency and power quality of the power distribution system was enhanced.
