Grid capacity assessment for electric vehicle charging

2013年6月，Hydro渥太华启动了一个合作研究项目，即电动汽车采用和预测（EMAP），以帮助为Hydro渥太华服务区制定成功的电动汽车（EV）部署战略。该项目旨在分析电动汽车在渥太华市场的渗透程度，并确定引入和管理电动汽车基础设施的最有效方法，以满足司机和电力供应商和分销商的预期需求。该拟议项目是EMAP项目的一部分，旨在评估电网容量，以满足电动汽车充电的预期水平和模式的需求。电网评估工作是基于公司提供的数据，这些数据识别和描述了渥太华市内早期电动汽车采用者社区的特征。

A collaborated research project, Electric Mobility Adoption and Prediction (EMAP), has been launched by Hydro Ottawa in June 2013 to help inform the development of a successful electric vehicle (EV) deployment strategy for the Hydro Ottawa service area. The project is to analyze the degree to which EVs will penetrate the market in Ottawa and to determine the most effective approach for introducing and managing EV infrastructure to meet the anticipated needs of the drivers and of power suppliers and distributors. This proposed project is a part of the EMAP project and it aims to assess the grid capacity to service the demand for anticipated levels and patterns of EV charging. The grid assessment work is based on the company-provided data which identify and characterize early EV adopter communities within the City of Ottawa.
