Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention proposes a charging load calculation method based on the simulation of electric vehicle charging behavior, taking into account the differences in charging time and location choices among different electric vehicle users. Background Technology
[0002] The high proportion of renewable energy connected to the grid, characterized by uncertainty, places higher demands on the flexibility of grid operation. Electric vehicles, as a typical flexible resource, exhibit similar characteristics in both time and space, allowing their charging loads to shift flexibly. By managing electric vehicles in an orderly manner and scheduling them to charge at different times and locations, it is possible to reduce system network losses, balance fluctuations in renewable energy output, and contribute positively to the power flow balance of the grid.
[0003] Current research on electric vehicle charging load distribution mainly focuses on analyzing the entire electric vehicle population, neglecting the differences in charging intentions among individual electric vehicle owners. This research method struggles to comprehensively characterize the impact of factors such as charging station scale, traffic conditions, and vehicle state of charge on the charging choices of different vehicle owners.
[0004] Some studies focus solely on the load level, calculating only the charging load of electric vehicles after applying different load control methods. This approach ignores the integrity of the electric vehicle charging process, leading to a situation where an electric vehicle is charged in multiple non-adjacent time periods, thus fragmenting its charging load. This fragmented charging load situation cannot accurately reflect the actual charging demand of electric vehicles. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the prior art, specifically the difficulty in accurately calculating the spatiotemporal distribution of electric vehicle charging load. This invention proposes a charging load calculation method based on electric vehicle charging behavior simulation, aiming to fully consider the charging intentions of different car owners and the charging status of electric vehicles when calculating electric vehicle load. This will allow for an accurate description of the spatiotemporal distribution of electric vehicle load, providing a reference for the site selection and capacity planning of charging stations, thereby further improving energy utilization.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0007] The charging load calculation method based on electric vehicle charging behavior simulation of this invention is characterized by the following steps:
