Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of power systems, and particularly relates to a smart community electric vehicle charging dynamic pricing method and system. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the popularity of electric vehicles, power grid load management becomes more complex. The charging behavior of electric vehicles brings new challenges to the stability of the power grid and the scheduling of power supply. Especially during peak electricity consumption periods, the disorderly concentrated charging of electric vehicles can lead to a sharp rise in power demand, which in turn can harm the safe operation of distribution facilities. On the other hand, the matching degree of photovoltaic output and daily load electricity consumption characteristics of smart communities is low, causing the peak-valley difference of the community net load curve to further widen.

[0003] In view of the limitations of existing community distribution facility reconstruction and expansion, and the difficulty of providing dedicated transformers for electric vehicle charging piles, smart community operators hope to guide electric vehicle owners to charge in periods of low grid load by equipping energy storage systems and using price signals to achieve orderly charging of electric vehicles and coordinated scheduling of photovoltaic output, thereby improving the system load curve. However, existing models fail to fully consider the interest game between electric vehicle owners and operators, resulting in unsatisfactory load management. At the same time, the counteraction of load response on electricity prices is ignored, leading to a mismatch between actual charging behavior and expected response, and a lack of deep understanding and control of electric vehicle charging behavior.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to implement a new pricing mechanism for community public charging piles, which can guide reasonable charging behavior and balance the power grid load while considering the interests of community operators and electric vehicle owners, thereby minimizing power costs. To this end, in order to ensure that the charging behavior of electric vehicles is consistent with the expected response, a smart community electric vehicle charging dynamic pricing method is proposed, a community operator double-layer dynamic pricing model is established, the charging behavior of electric vehicle owners is considered, and the equivalent load curve fluctuation is minimized as the target, and the energy storage output is arranged. The operator releases dynamic electricity price parameters for each period in the future scheduling period to guide electric vehicle owners to independently select appropriate charging periods. In this way, the owners can choose to charge at a lower electricity price, thereby reducing the cost of charging. Through the application of the double-layer master-slave game model and dynamic electricity price, the interests of the agent and the electric vehicle owner are balanced. In addition, in the actual response, both parties can maximize their returns within their respective interests, avoiding potential losses due to unexpected results. SUMMARY

[0005] This invention provides a dynamic pricing method and system for electric vehicle (EV) charging in smart communities, aiming to solve the problem of inconsistency between expected and actual charging behavior in existing EV charging behavior control models. Existing models neglect the impact of load response on electricity prices, thus failing to consider the interaction behavior of EVs dependent on dynamic electricity prices from a fundamental perspective. This leads to unexpected response peaks, causing losses for operators. To address this, this invention constructs a pricing model for community operators at the upper level. Community operators consider photovoltaic output and allocate energy storage output to minimize the fluctuation of the equivalent load curve, disseminating dynamic electricity price parameters for each time period within the future scheduling cycle to EV owners. At the lower level, EV owners, guided by dynamic electricity prices, autonomously choose charging times to minimize charging costs. The introduction of dynamic electricity prices incorporates the impact of load response on electricity prices, ensuring no potential high electricity prices harm their interests. The relationship between community operators and EVs is established through a two-layer master-slave game model. At equilibrium, the interests of both parties are maximized in the actual response, achieving an incentive-compatible state and avoiding inconsistencies between actual and expected EV responses, thus preventing new response peaks and potential high electricity prices that could harm the interests of both community operators and EV owners.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A dynamic pricing method for electric vehicle charging in a smart community includes:

[0008] Step 1: The community operator collects data on the electric vehicles served during the future scheduling cycle and builds a lower-level response model with the goal of minimizing the electricity cost for electric vehicle owners;

[0009] Step 2: Operators consider future photovoltaic output and electric vehicle charging response and arrange energy storage systems to construct an upper-level dynamic electricity price design model that minimizes the fluctuation of the equivalent load curve, taking into account the upper and lower limits and average limits of the electricity price.

[0010] Step 3: Use a genetic algorithm to solve the lower-level response model and the upper-level dynamic electricity price design model to obtain the dynamic electricity price parameters with the highest fitness and publish them at the initial moment of the future scheduling period.

[0011] A further improvement of this invention is that, in step one: the community operator collects data on the electric vehicles served during future scheduling cycles, including:

[0034] A further improvement of this invention lies in step three: using a genetic algorithm to solve the lower-level response model and the upper-level dynamic electricity price design model, obtaining the dynamic electricity price parameters with the highest fitness, and publishing them at the initial moment of the future scheduling period, including:

[0037] Step 3: Electric vehicle delivery to the community operator m The dynamic electricity price is used to calculate the charging volume for each time period within the scheduling cycle with the lowest charging cost, and then the result is returned to the community operator.

[0039] Step 5: The community operator generates a new dynamic electricity price population by cross-referencing and varying the dynamic electricity price coefficients;

[0040] Step 6: Repeat steps 3-4 until the termination condition is met, and output the dynamic electricity price corresponding to the one with the smallest fluctuation in the equivalent load curve of the community operator.

[0041] A further improvement of this invention is that, at the initial moment of the actual scheduling cycle, the community operator publishes the dynamic electricity price that it has ultimately decided upon.

[0051] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial technical effects:

[0052] Compared to existing traditional master-slave game-theoretic static electricity pricing design methods, this invention addresses the problem of the detrimental effects on the interests of both parties when the actual load response deviates from the expected response. For operators, after the traditional electricity price is released, smart terminals concentrate on charging during low-price periods based on electric vehicle owners' settings, resulting in unexpected load peaks. For electric vehicle owners, these unexpected load peaks present the potential for higher electricity prices, increasing charging costs. Compared to traditional electricity pricing designs, the dynamic electricity price proposed in this invention considers the impact of load response on electricity prices during the load response phase, avoiding load peaks. First, a response to the dynamic electricity price is introduced at the lower level to avoid the potential for high electricity prices, ensuring that electric vehicle owners' charging behavior aligns with the expected response. Furthermore, operators consider photovoltaic output and the load response behavior of lower-level electric vehicles; the designed dynamic electricity price meets the constraints of retail electricity prices, and the output of the energy storage system is arranged to minimize the fluctuation of the equivalent load curve. Finally, a genetic algorithm is used to solve for the optimal dynamic electricity price. Attached Figure Description
