A Review of Critical State Joint Estimation Methods of Lithium-Ion Batteries in Electric Vehicles

2022

Author(s): Wen C, Xu Q, Chen M, Xiao Z, Wen J, Luo Y, Zhao X, Liang Y, Liang K.

Battery state of charge (SOC), state of health (SOH), and state of power (SOP) are decisive factors that influence the energy-management system (EMS) performance of electric vehicles. However, the accurate estimation of SOC, SOH, and SOP remains challenging due to the high nonlinearity of the battery dynamic characteristics and the strong coupling among the states

Potential of Load Shifting in a Parking Garage with Electric Vehicle Chargers, Local Energy Production and Storage

2022

Author(s): Castellucci V, Wallberg A, Flygare C.

This article provides a case study based on a real-world parking garage with a smart grid infrastructure called Dansmästaren. The analysis shows how renewable energy sources, energy storage technologies, and smart charging of electric vehicles can smooth out the load curve of the parking garage and relieve the electric grid during peak hours.

Effects of the Incorporation of Electric Vehicles on Protection Coordination in Microgrids

2022

Author(s): Saldarriaga-Zuluaga SD, López-Lezama JM, Zuluaga Ríos CD, Villa Jaramillo A.

Electric vehicles (EVs) would connect to the grid using clean, renewable electricity; however, the interconnection between EVs and the grid brings about new challenges for traditional power systems. Plug-in hybrid and plug-in EVs have become more prevalent in the system; therefore, their impacts and benefits are also of concern.
