Intelligent electric vehicle recharging

摘要

Some embodiments determine, for electric vehicles within an electricity distribution network, optimal recharging schedules based on customer requirements. Some embodiments adjust the optimal recharging schedules to ensure that components of the electricity distribution network operate within their rated limits based on a node sensitivity approach.

主权项

1. A method, performed by one or more computing devices, comprising:
receiving input information associated with an electricity distribution network; receiving information associated with one or more electric vehicles within the electricity distribution network; determining, for each of the one or more electric vehicles, a recharging schedule for a specified period of time, the recharging schedule being based on at least the input information; and for at least one unit of time during the specified period of time:
adjusting the recharging schedule for at least one of the one or more electric vehicles based at least in part on a determination of one or more system constraint violations in the electricity distribution network caused by recharging the one or more electric vehicles; and wherein the determining comprises:
receiving information associated with one or more customer recharging schedules, each customer recharging schedule being associated with one of the one or more electric vehicles; andoptimizing a total demand of the electricity distribution network based on the one or more customer recharging schedules.
