Abstract:
The contribution of plug-in Electric Vehicles (EV) for frequency response was investigated. 24-hour EV load profiles obtained from a probabilistic approach was used. Three time dependent charging modes were considered. A single bus model of Great Britten power system was used for simulations. Simulations were carried out for a day with low demand. The simulation results shows that shedding EVs that are charging can reduce the frequency excursion significantly.
