Abstract

The impact of global warming and the imperative to limit climate change have stimulated the need to develop new solutions based on renewable energy sources. One of the emerging trends in this endeavor are Electric Vehicles (EVs), which use electricity instead of traditional fossil fuels as a power source, relying on the Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) paradigm. The novelty of such a paradigm requires careful analysis to avoid malicious attempts. An attacker can exploit several surfaces, such as the remote connection between the Distribution Grid and Charging Supply or the authentication system between the charging Supply Equipment and the Electric Vehicles. However, V2G architecture's high cost and complexity in implementation can restrain this field's research capability. In this paper, we approach this limitation by proposing MiniV2G, an open-source emulator to simulate Electric Vehicle Charging (EVC) built on top of Mininet and RiseV2G. MiniV2G is particularly suitable for security researchers to study and test real V2G charging scenarios. MiniV2G can reproduce with high fidelity a V2G architecture to easily simulate an EV charging process. Finally, we present a MiniV2G application and show how MiniV2G can be used to study V2G communication and develop attacks and countermeasures that can be applied to real systems. Since we believe our tool can help research in this field, we also made it freely available.
MiniV2G:电动汽车充电模拟器
全球变暖的影响和限制气候变化的必要性刺激了开发基于可再生能源的新解决方案的需求。其中一个新兴趋势是电动汽车(ev),它依靠汽车到电网(V2G)模式,使用电力而不是传统的化石燃料作为动力源。这种范式的新颖性需要仔细分析以避免恶意尝试。攻击者可以利用多个表面,例如配电网和充电设备之间的远程连接或充电设备和电动汽车之间的认证系统。然而,V2G架构的高成本和实现的复杂性制约了这一领域的研究能力。在本文中,我们通过提出MiniV2G来解决这一限制,MiniV2G是一个开源模拟器,用于模拟基于Mininet和RiseV2G的电动汽车充电(EVC)。MiniV2G特别适合安全研究人员研究和测试真实的V2G充电场景。MiniV2G可以高保真再现V2G架构,轻松模拟电动汽车充电过程。最后,我们介绍了一个MiniV2G应用程序,并展示了如何使用MiniV2G来研究V2G通信,并开发可应用于实际系统的攻击和对策。因为我们相信我们的工具可以帮助这个领域的研究,我们也免费提供了它。
