Analyzing the impacts of electric vehicle charging on distribution system reliability

Abstract

Currently the development of large scale electric vehicles have become governments' focus of attention. Based on the research of charging and discharging power models, the paper puts forward the island formation strategy and establishes the distribution system reliability model with the electric vehicles. The Monte Carlo time sequential simulation is used to evaluate the effects of different vehicle types, locations and penetration on the reliability of IEEE-RBTS Bus6 system. The conclusion could be used as references to the electric vehicle development.
