AC charging with EV metadata and State-of-Charge (ACES): for truly smart charging and V2G

有了《巴黎协议》和《2050年净零》，英国有望实现可再生电力目标，到2035年实现100%零电动汽车，并在所有新家庭中实现智能充电器(EVSE)，但面临两个随之而来的挑战：a)在需求不灵活的情况下，可变供应的削减成本从2010年的1.65亿GB增加到2019年的6.36亿GB，由于新冠肺炎期间供应过剩，额外增加了5亿GB。B)电力运输和供热带来的高峰需求增长将需要基础设施升级，包括30%的低压网络和40%的EV普及率。Beis的智能系统和灵活性计划声称，到2050年，灵活性可以节省400亿GB，但ENA和Element Energy发现，住宅灵活性尤其需要住宅灵活性，才能在电网边缘的低压网络中充分发挥这些节省的作用。优化的住宅智能EVSE和V2G网络为缓解电网边缘限制提供了领先的可行大众市场技术选择，计划为每个家庭配备一个充电器，专家预测，它们可以将高峰需求减少50%，每年节省35亿GB。到2050年。然而，解锁这些节省所需的智能充电网络技术尚未推出。Hypervolt提供英国最先进的智能充电器Hypervolt Home 2.0，专门设计通过提供能源系统服务，以零边际基础设施成本加速电动汽车的普及。Hypervolt提出了一项为期6个月的可行性研究，以增强智能充电和住宅充电中的V2G优化技术。该项目将为后续研发建立一条技术路线，充分释放智能充电和V2G在住宅充电方面的潜力。成功之后将立即实施，使Hypervolt和英国在全球拥有独特的领先地位。它将概述唯一可行的大众市场技术，以缓解快速扩展的约束管理区的电网边缘约束(4,527兆瓦的受限配电网络，覆盖约750,000个家庭，3.5%的家庭充电市场，并在不断增加)。

With the Paris Agreement and Net Zero 2050, the UK is on-track to meet renewable electricity targets, 100% ZEVs by 2035, and smart chargers (EVSE) in all new homes, but faces two consequent challenges: A) curtailment costs from variable supply with demand inflexibility increased from £165m in 2010 to £636m in 2019, with an additional £500m due to oversupply during Covid-19\. B) peak demand increases from electric transport and heat will require infrastructure upgrades, including 30% of low voltage networks at 40% EV penetration. BEIS' Smart Systems and Flexibility plan asserts that flexibility can save £40bn by 2050, but the ENA and Element Energy find that residential flexibility in particular is needed to unlock the full scope of these savings in grid-edge low voltage networks. Optimised networks of residential smart EVSE and V2G present the leading viable mass-market technology option for alleviating grid-edge constraints, with a charger planned for every home, and experts predict they can reduce peak demand by 50% and save £3.5bn p.a. by 2050\. However, the smart charging network technology required to unlock these savings is not yet available. Hypervolt provides the UK's most advanced smart charger, Hypervolt Home 2.0, specifically designed to accelerate EV uptake at zero marginal infrastructure cost by providing energy system services. Hypervolt proposes a 6-month feasibility study into enhanced optimisation technologies for smart charging and V2G in residential charging. This project will establish a technology route for follow-on R&D, unlocking the full potential of smart charging and V2G in residential charging. Success will be followed by immediate implementation, giving Hypervolt and the UK a unique leading position globally. It will outline the only viable mass-market technology for alleviating grid-edge constraints in rapidly expanding constraint management zones (4,527MW of constrained distribution network, covering ~750,000 homes, 3.5% of the home charging market and counting).
