Electric Vehicles support for intentional islanding: A prediction for 2030

A future perspective micro-grid with a medium-term prediction for 2030 is described. The present state of intentional islanding is briefly reviewed. Distributed Generators (DGs) and Electric Vehicles (EVs) to sustain the local distribution system in the event of interruption of supply are considered. Projections regarding their availability are presented and different penetration scenarios are addressed. Environmental benefits of a future micro-grid are described through a comparison of the maximum and minimum EV and micro-generation penetration predictions.
