Abstract:
Renewable energy resources may help reduce system losses and dependency on fossil fuels but introduce a new uncertainty parameter to the already complex problem of power system operation. This paper studies the effect of different solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration levels in Singapore and proposes a flexible charging strategy for private electric vehicles (EVs) to reduce the effect of PV intermittency on ramping and switching of generation units. Intelligently scheduled charging of EVs can help improve overall power system stability, even out energy valleys and also push costs lower by reducing the strain resulting from changes in the generator outputs. Different scenarios with variable PV power and EV penetration and the effect on generation cost are analyzed.
