Robust broadcast-communication control of electric vehicle charging
2010 first IEEE international conference on smart grid communications, 2010•ieeexplore.ieee.org
The anticipated increase in the number of plug-in electric vehicles (EV) will put additional
strain on electrical distribution circuits. Many control schemes have been proposed to control
EV charging. Here, we develop control algorithms based on randomized EV charging start
times and simple one-way broadcast communication allowing for a time delay between
communication events. Using arguments from queuing theory and statistical analysis, we
seek to maximize the utilization of excess distribution circuit capacity while keeping the …
