Under the charging mode of charging on demand, a large number of electric vehicles are connected to the power grid in an unordered manner, which has brought a huge impact on the smooth operation of the power grid. The problem of "peak on peak" load in the power grid is becoming increasingly serious. For the sake of safe operation of the power grid, there is an urgent need for an orderly charging scheduling strategy that uses the load status of the transformer area as the main reference indicator, adjusts the charging power of the charging pile under different load conditions, reduces the "peak" charging power, and weakens the load impact of the transformer.

[0003] The traditional orderly charging scheduling strategy is mainly a way for customized equipment to receive cloud scheduling instructions, that is, by upgrading the orderly charging function of the charging pile, introducing energy routers and energy controllers, and then the modified charging piles interact with the cloud to achieve scheduling. This method requires a lot of modifications to the original network equipment structure, and two types of modifications are required for DC charging piles and AC charging piles, which makes construction difficult and costly. At the same time, this method of scheduling relies on scheduling instructions issued by the cloud, which is restricted by public network communication conditions and has the defects of instability and high latency.
