Scenario-based modeling of the effects of electric vehicle charging station on the grid

Increasing CO2 and Greenhouse Gases (GHGs) are cause global warming to have an inevitable effect in today's world. To cope with this adverse impact, it is known that CO2 and GHG emissions should be reduced. The transportation sector represent a large portion of harmful gas emissions. With the increase in the number of Electric Vehicles (EV) in the transportation sector, it is aimed to completely remove fossil fuel vehicles from the market. In this way, it is estimated that CO2 and GHG emissions will be greatly reduced and the effect of these harmful gases in the transportation sector will reach a minimal level. However, it is known that the increase in the number of EV will cause some major problems in the form of harmonic generation in the distribution network, distortions in the voltage profile and transformer power losses. In addition, it is examined how short-circuit faults on the network side affect the voltage profile in the distribution network with the effect of the EV charging station. Thus, in this study, the effects of EV charging stations on the distribution network were examined on a scenario-based basis, and suggestions were presented for the solution of the negative effects. The results are given in tables and graphs.
