The construction of community charging facilities and supporting distribution networks based on the predicted results of electric vehicle (EV) charging power in saturation year has resulted in a large initial idleness of the distribution network and a serious waste of assets. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a collaborative planning method for urban community charging facilities and distribution networks. First, based on the load density method and occupancy rate to predict the base electricity load in the community, the Bass model and charging probability are used to predict the community’s electric vehicle charging load. Taking the minimum annual construction and operation costs of the community distribution network as the objective function, the power supply topology of the distribution network for a new community is optimized by using Prim and single-parent genetic algorithms. Finally, the proposed scheme is verified by using the actual community data of a certain city in China as an analysis example, and the scheme of one-time planning of the distribution network and yearly construction of charging facilities is given.
The increase in demand for the fast charging of electric vehicles (EVs) has promoted research and the application of high-power direct current (DC) fast charging stations, and research on the stability control of charging stations with a parallel structure of multi-controllable rectifier modules is of great significance. Taking into account the dynamic and steady-state performance, the parameters of the dual-loop controller based on virtual impedance control are designed to realize the power sharing of multi-controllable rectifier modules. The constant power load model of EV charging at a constant current is established, and the load capacity of the cascaded system of converters is studied by using the impedance analysis method. The experimental and simulation results verify the effectiveness and correctness of the power sharing control strategy and the cascaded system stability analysis.
