Power quality in micro girds with electric vehicles

Abstract

Plug-in electric vehicles are becoming more practical and popular in developing countries being efficient and more environmentally friendly. They can act asloads as well as sources using a technique known as Vehicle-to-Grid which adds key features to a micro grid in the form of primary frequency regulation. In this work, a method called Decentralized Vehicle-to-Grid Control for Primary Frequency Regulation Considering Charging Demands is studied and modeled under MATLAB Simulink for different scenarios to see the impact of these electric vehicles on the micro grid’s frequency.
