Effects of Electric Vehicles Charging on the distribution system

Abstract

This paper presents effects of charging electric vehicles (EV) on distribution system. Precisely, effects on bus voltage profile and power losses, due to charging on radial distribution system (RDS) to ring main distribution system (RMDS) and advance RMDS networks with the assistance of Distributed Generation (DG) as well as capacitor banks. Framework assimilate DG which replicates current inceptions due to solar photo voltaic (PV), wind, biogas and other upcoming renewable power sources along with traditional power factor correction measures like capacitor banks in the first place, so that system is pragmatic in design to replicate the real distribution system. The work will be conducted on steady state system and implemented on IEEE 33-Bus test system using the MATLAB programming environment on manifold case studies.
