Research on Active Distribution Network Planning with Electric Vehicles and Distributed Generation

Abstract

With the increasing number of Electric Vehicle (EV) and clean energy generation year by year, EV and distributed generation (DG) have become issues that have to be considered in active distribution network planning. Firstly, considering the time series characteristics of DG, the output time series model of DG is established; Secondly, the parking demand and space-time movement model of EV is established, and the Monta Carlo method is used to simulate the space-time distribution of EV charging load in different planning areas; Finally, taking the system investment and annual operation and maintenance cost, voltage index and environmental index as the objective function, and considering the node voltage, node current and DG installation capacity as constraints. The improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve the planning model, and the access location and capacity of EV charging station and DG are obtained. Taking a distribution network as an example, the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed model and algorithm are verified.
