Abstract

With the advance of manufacturing technologies and increasing attention on environment protection, electric vehicles (EVs) are expected to see a fast development. However, large adoption of EVs may impose a high power demand on the grid and may affect the network infrastructures. Controlled power consumption for EV charging and home appliances could help to reduce such pressures on power systems. This paper aims at analyzing the impacts of integration control for EV charging, controllable home appliances, vehicle-to-home (V2H) and home based batteries on neighbourhood level network. Simulation results are presented for Nissan Leaf and Tesla Model S.
