Abstract

Recently, attention has been focused on whether the SmartGrid could work efficiently in an energy network. The subject of our study is the electric vehicle (EV), which has been proposed as a potential chargeable/dischargeable part of the power grid infrastructure. As energy is transferred between an EV and the power grid, it is possible to regulate energy on the entire grid via charging and discharging the EV battery. In the future, it may also be possible to stabilize energy within the system, using information technology control embedded in the network of the SmartGrid. Compared with a case in which energy storage is fixed, more complex control is needed when EV technology is used. This study evaluates these circumstances using a simulated system.
