Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of real-time demand response control technology for electric vehicles, and in particular to a real-time demand response control method for electric vehicles based on the transfer of electricity use rights. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid growth in the number of electric vehicles, the demand for charging is increasing daily. Limited by the location, capacity, and number of charging stations, some charging stations experience situations where vehicles are waiting for charging piles, especially during peak charging times at midday and in the early morning. Waiting in line for charging piles has become the norm in some areas, reducing the user experience. Furthermore, the increasing number of electric vehicles is placing a certain burden on the stable operation of the power distribution network in the areas where charging stations are located.

[0003] To improve the user experience for electric vehicle (EV) users, ensure their personalized charging needs are met, and reduce the impact of EV access on distribution network areas, power grid companies are guiding EV charging behavior in an orderly manner, altering users' charging times and demands. Typical methods used by power grid companies include demand response, specifically price-based demand response and incentive-based demand response. Price-based demand response involves setting time-of-use pricing, increasing prices during peak charging periods and decreasing prices during off-peak periods, thus guiding price-sensitive users to charge during off-peak hours. Incentive-based demand response involves providing subsidies to encourage users to reduce charging demand, such as adjusting charging power levels or shifting load to other times of day.

[0004] During demand response, situations may arise where the number of available charging stations or their power output is limited. While power grid companies can intervene in user charging behavior to reduce waiting times, this is primarily a top-down approach. There is limited research and application considering a bottom-up model, where electric vehicle users negotiate with each other to change their charging habits and avoid waiting times during demand response periods.
