Advanced Models and Simulation Tools to Address Electric Vehicle Power System Integration (Steady-State and Dynamic Behavior)

This chapter is intended to identify grid operational management and control strategies that should be available to deal with a large-scale deployment of electric plug-in vehicles (EVs). EVs are high flexible loads that can be used as mobile storage devices, thus being capable of providing several power system services [1]. In fact, EV batteries when in charging mode can behave as controllable loads, providing spinning reserves as a result of a load decrease or even providing power back to the grid under the so-called vehicle-to-grid (V2G) mode, helping peak load demand management. In this way, the growing prospects of an EV market expansion may strengthen the concepts that aim at the active grid management.
