摘要
In the near future, millions of electric vehicles (EVs), especially plug-in hybrid EVs (PHEVs), will be integrated into the electrical system. Such an increase in the demand for energy will require optimised management of distribution networks. This study presents a new formulation to determine the optimal size and location of PHEV charging stations to maximise the distribution system manager (DSM) benefit. A two-stage procedure has been considered to optimise PHEV charging station planning. In the first stage, the candidate locations and their size are determined based on: (i) the sum of benefits from the appropriate use of charging station for charging and discharging of vehicles and (ii) the benefit of providing spinning reserve and supplying the network's load demand at peak times by DSM. In the next stage, an improved framework is proposed to classify charging stations into efficient and inefficient sets characterised by non-financial indices. The proposed method is data envelopment analysis efficiency and three indices, including active power loss, voltage profile improvement and CO2 emission. The suggested model is successfully applied to a test system with nine buses. Simulation results show that appropriate planning results in economic benefits as well as improvements in active power losses and the voltage profile.
