CPS: Synergy: Collaborative Research: Architectural and Algorithmic Solutions for Large Scale PEV Integration into Power Grids

本项目设计了将插电式混合动力汽车（pev）集成到电网中的算法。具体而言，该项目将在分销/零售层面制定并解决PEV生态系统中各个实体（PEV所有者、商业充电站所有者、聚合商和分销公司）的关键优化问题。将考虑在商业充电站和住宅充电，无论是在pev仅作为负载的情况下，还是在它们也可以作为电源的情况下，配备车辆到家庭（V2H）或车辆到电网（V2G）的能量回注能力。项目的重点是由不同的个体参与者进行分布式决策，以实现分析性的系统级性能保证。运输市场的电气化为公用事业公司和汽车制造商提供了收入增长，为消费者降低了运营成本，并对环境有利。通过解决由于pev对电网施加额外负载而产生的问题，以及通过解决目前阻碍pev作为分布式存储资源使用的挑战，本研究将直接影响社会。所获得的设计原则也将适用于其他网络物理基础设施系统。与工业伙伴的密切合作将使研究立足于实际问题，并确保将结果迅速传播到市场。一个强大的教育组成部分将把拟议的研究纳入课堂，以便更好地培养本科生和研究生。该项目的详细信息将在http://ee.nd.edu/faculty/vgupta/research/funding/cps_pev.html上提供

This project designs algorithms for the integration of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PEVs) into the power grid. Specifically, the project will formulate and solve optimization problems critical to various entities in the PEV ecosystem -- PEV owners, commercial charging station owners, aggregators, and distribution companies -- at the distribution / retail level. Charging at both commercial charging stations and at residences will be considered, for both the case when PEVs only function as loads, and the case when they can also function as sources, equipped with vehicle-to-home (V2H) or vehicle-to-grid (V2G) energy reinjection capability. The focus of the project is on distributed decision making by various individual players to achieve analytical system-level performance guarantees.Electrification of the transportation market offers revenue growth for utility companies and automobile manufacturers, lower operational costs for consumers, and benefits to the environment. By addressing problems that will arise as PEVs impose extra load on the grid, and by solving challenges that currently impede the use of PEVs as distributed storage resources, this research will directly impact the society. The design principles gained will also be applicable to other cyber-physical infrastructural systems. A close collaboration with industrial partners will ground the research in real problems and ensure quick dissemination of results to the marketplace. A strong educational component will integrate the proposed research into the classroom to allow better training of both undergraduate and graduate students.
