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

该项目设计的算法的插入式混合动力电动汽车（PEVs）到电网的整合。具体而言，该项目将制定和解决对PEV生态系统中的各种实体至关重要的优化问题- PEV所有者，商业充电站所有者，聚合器和分销公司-在分销/零售层面。将考虑在商业充电站和住宅充电，无论是PEV仅用作负载的情况，还是它们也可以用作源的情况，配备车辆到家庭（V2 H）或车辆到电网（V2 G）能量再注入能力。该项目的重点是由不同的个体参与者进行分布式决策，以实现分析系统级的性能保证。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PEV对电网施加额外负载时会出现的问题，并解决目前阻碍将PEV用作分布式存储资源的挑战，这项研究将直接影响社会。所获得的设计原则也将适用于其他信息物理基础设施系统。与工业合作伙伴的密切合作将使研究立足于真实的问题，并确保将结果快速传播到市场。一个强有力的教育组成部分将拟议的研究纳入课堂，以便更好地培训本科生和研究生。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.
