A simulation model for the control of electric vehicles charging networks

This paper presents the details of software development and implementation of a simulation model to be used for performance analysis of the control applied for management of a plug-in electric vehicles charging network. The model is designed to provide an evaluation of the tested control algorithms in terms of efficiency and stability operation. Apart from the control algorithm evaluation the model can be used for assessment of required control modification. The model has been built using Java language under paradigms of object-oriented programming and test driven development.
