Capacity selection of charging pile battery energy storage

How to design the optimal PV-BS capacity for EVCs?

To design the optimal PV-BS capacity for EVCS at different venues, it is essential to consider user charging behavior, charging load modelling, operational control, and capacity optimization models. The following review examines recent research related to these aspects.

When does a solar energy storage system charge?

The energy storage system is designed to charge during periods of low electricity tariffs or high PV generation, specifically at 1:00 and 12:00, and to discharge during times of inadequate PV output and elevated tariff rates in the evening, from 20:00 to 22:00, as illustrated in Fig. 12 (a).

How does charging behaviour affect PV-BS capacity integration results?

4. Charging behaviour greatly affects the PV-BS capacity integration results because the resulting load profiles are differently matched to the PV output, and charging time is such that the more charging is performed at midday the greater PV capacity and smaller BScapacity is required.

How does charging congestion affect the capacity and power of BS?

In terms of the capacity and power of BS, different charging congestion timings at motorway and residential EVCS significantly influence the requirements. For motorway EVCS, the advancement of the peak charging load spans the entire period of higher electricity tariffs.

How do charging ports affect the EV fleet?

Despite a constant average number of daily accesses, an increase in charging ports alleviates queues for the EV fleet, which, in turn, leads to an increase in the maximum charging load at the EVCS, enabling higher consumption of PV energy and necessitating a corresponding escalation in the integrated capacities of both PV and BS systems.

How does a limited number of charging ports affect peak load?

As illustrated in Fig. 10, within the constraints of a limited number of charging ports, an increase in daily accesses tends to saturate the charging load rather than elevate the peak value, while advancing the timing of the arrival of the peak load and extending the duration of the peak load period.
