Evaluation of EV charging load contributing to stabilize PV output with consideration for rapid charge

There are growing concerns around the world about global warming issues, and the various countermeasures to reduce global warming by greenhouse gas are proposal. In the transport sector, Electric Vehicle (EV) is mentioned as one of the solutions to reduce CO2 emissions and heavy dependence on oil. In order to promote the introduction of EV, it is necessary to build charging infrastructures that EV can be charged rapidly. The purpose of this research is to evaluate EV charging that includes rapid charge in charging station (ST). In order to calculate EV charging load, the traffic simulator utilizing the multi-agent method is employed. In this paper, the EV charging load in a day is calculated by the traffic simulation and evaluated in order to assess the influence of EV charging on the grid system and the applicability of EV in the smart-grid system.
