High renewable energy penetration in power systems may bring a series of problems such as frequency fluctuations. Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) and controllable loads have been shifting into focus for this. A dynamic vehicle-to-grid (V2G) model with feedback control is proposed by considering the battery charging/discharging characteristics and the dynamic model of frequency regulation with PEVs and controllable loads for a single area is established. Simulation results demonstrate that the application of PEVs and controllable loads can relief the frequency refutation due to the randomness of renewable energy sources.

Fossil energy is increasing depletion, renewable energy sources plays an important role in our life and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) is proved to be feasible. Electric Vehicles (EVs) can not only store energy, but also can be used as a medium between the battery energy stored in EVs and the power grid through Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G). And then, the energy in the batteries of electric vehicles can move with EVs. This paper introduces an energy distribution network, which is consisting of EVs, charge stations and renewable energy sources. After analyzing the characteristics of energy distribution network, we introduce a new commercial operation mode called mobile electrical grid, which is compared with the integrated grids. To calculate the life cycle energy loss for this novel operation mode, a mathematical model is developed, and then what we have deduced is demonstrated to be a lasso optimization problem with linear constraints, which is convex.

Abstract:Plug-in electrical vehicles (PEVs) can participate in frequency regulation (FR) in electric power systems under the framework of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. With a growing number of electrical vehicles (EVs), a greater number of distributed electrical vehicle (EV) chargers may change charge or discharge power simultaneously to participate in FR, resulting in over response. In this paper, considering the over-response and equality issues, an asynchronous method for dispersed PEVs participation in FR is proposed. PEVs participate in FR with the same set of parameters. Over-response can be avoided during the process of FR. Equality enables the dispersed PEVs to participate in FR with the same probability. The presented method empowers PEVs to actively participate in FR without a control centre or a communication network. Simulation results demonstrate the validity of the presented method in different operational scenarios.

The design of self-synchronized synchronverter is made by removing the keen synchronization unit. Synchronization with the grid takes place before connection and it will track the grid frequency after connection. Like the original synchronverter it functions in various modes to deliver the grid frequency as the reference frequency. The functions of frequency regulation, voltage regulation, real and reactive power control are maintained. Moreover, it can share the real power and reactive power accurately. Distributed energy sources delivers the major contribution to the power system operation. Generally the renewable sources are non-linear and uncontainable. Majority of renewable energy sources were associated to power systems through dc/ac converters. For this kind of application synchronizing the inverter with the grid is necessary before and after the connections to be made. It is one of the biggest challenges. So synchronverter is designed to deliver a scheme for power systems to regulate the renewable energy connected to the grid and enables smart grid integration.
