Abstract |
This paper presents a methodology to calculate the daily load curve per city by taking into consideration a charging station for electric vehicles, which easily determines the effect of the load owing to the charging of electric vehicles in Seoul. In particular, we calculate the charging power of uncontrolled plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) in terms of the daily running characteristics of vehicle travelling between homes and workplace, with respect to PEV charging stations in the city, according to the market share of PEVs. Furthermore, we calculate the load curve for the simultaneous charging strategy of controlled PEVs in terms of the vehicles’ daily running characteristics between homes and workplaces and a time-of-use (TOU) price plan of the Seoul Metropolitan Government under uncontrolled and controlled charging types. Thus, we are able to analysis the effect of the total existing electricity load and the abovementioned daily load on the grid. Because we can precisely determine the effect of the hourly charging load of PEVs on a power grid in Seoul using these study results, we can establish a PEV charging load management plan to prevent power grid reinforcement and expansion while satisfying the overload constraint of the power grid in Seoul using an appropriate TOU price plan. |
