Introduction

• Conventional View of Battery Vehicles (BVs)

– The conventional view expects battery vehicles to be plugged in to charge their batteries. Hybrid and fuel cell vehicles generate electricity from the fuel in their tanks. Plug-in hybrids can either run from fuel or can charge from the grid. In the conventional view, electricity never flows from vehicle to the grid

Introduction

• V2G Concept

– The V2G concept is that battery, hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles all can send power to the electric grid. For battery and plug-in hybrid vehicles, the power connection is already there. For fuel cell and fuel-only hybrids, an electrical connection must be added

Categories of V2G Applications

• Load Shaving

• Ancillary Services (Frequency Regulation)

– Aims at using the energy stored in electric vehicles to compensate for the peak load of the grid

– From the vehicle owners’ point of view, since electricity price is determined by demand, the transport cost can be relatively reduced by drawing “cheap” energy from the grid, and vice versa

– An ancillary mechanism to fine-tune the frequency of the grid in a small time scale, e.g., minutes – May not necessarily involve energy delivery but simply the use of the capacity of vehicle batteries

Categories of V2G Applications

• Ancillary Services (Frequency Regulation, Cont’d)

– Bidirectional V2G: “Load + generator” regulation

– Unidirectional V2G: “Load only” regulation:

May reduce profits to less than 1/4 of what they could gain using bidirectional V2G

All legacy EVs can participate without any retrofit to the EVs themselves or substantial additional infrastructure in the charging stations

A logical first step in V2G implementation

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation (Phase 2)

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Analysis on Charging Rate Control

– A vehicle is considered as providing regulation service when being idle and the vehicle is paid from the grid operator. On the other hand, when a vehicle is charging, it has to pay for purchasing the power from the grid. Thus, a revenue function could be defined as follows:

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Analysis on Charging Rate Control (Cont’d)

– Rewrite the revenue function

– Assuming that the prices are given as hourly data, the second integral term in a discrete form yields

where N is the number of increment in expected plug-in duration T

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Analysis on Charging Rate Control (Cont’d)

– A “Theorem”: charging control should be on or off at maximum charging rate to maximize the revenue

– Thus, we no more need to be concerned about the charging rate. Instead, we focus on how to determine the charging sequence

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Analysis on Charging Sequence Control

– The continuous variable r(t) can be replaced by a step function C(t), which is only 1 or 0 for the entire duration

– Then the revenue function (3) is revised as

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Analysis on Charging Sequence Control (Cont’d)

– Optimal solution: An optimal control sequence could be obtained simply by turning on (making it 1) from the minimal point of

until the charging duration constraint (8) is satisfied

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Consideration of SOC

– For example, from the moment SOC reaches 100%, regulation “down,” which corresponds to charging of the battery, cannot be performed at all

– The regulation price PR(t) in (7) should be modified to reflect the energy constraint as follows

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Consideration of SOC (Cont’d)

– Solution: Dynamic Programming

– In order to perform the dynamic programming, the revenue function was employed as a performance measure with a slight modification to reflect the desired final SOC control as a cost

where x(t2) is an actual SOC at the end of the control, xT is a desired final SOC, and is a proportional factor which reflects the relative importance of the desire to drive the system to the final SOC xT

Bidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Numerical Results – Regarding the vehicle parameters, we assumed 20 KWh battery with maximum charging and discharging rate of 0.1 C, which in turn is 2 KW for each direction

– The vehicle was considered with 10% initial SOC, and the desired final SOC was set to 90%

– The total plug-in duration was set to 12 h. The aggregator should control the charging to be on for 8 h to transfer the SOC to 90%

Unidirectional V2G for Frequency Regulation

• Regulation Algorithm

• Research Problem – Aggregator profits come from two sources: The first is a fixed markup over market price on energy which is passed on to the consumers. The second is a fixed percentage of the revenue obtained from providing regulation services

– Optimizing: POP, MxAP, and MnAP, for all vehicles connected to the aggregator
