Dynamic Switching Enhancement for Electric Vehicle Charging Station Real-Time Operation

Le résumé fourni par la source

Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station (CS) may have various Charging Columns (CC) with one or two Charging Points (CP). When two CPs are used, the power rate of the charging column is constant, but each CP can vary its power rate. The scheduling of the CP is commonly not controlled, and one CP could provide the maximum rate of the CC, limiting the availability of the other CP. This operation could reduce the infrastructure utilization rate while worsening the user charging experience. Therefore, the scope of this paper is to propose a dynamic switching to vary the power rate of the CPs taking into account the EV's charging demand. This would mitigate the lack of flexibility regarding the CP availability at every instant. The results show that this approach reduces the charging times, increases the EV satisfaction rate, and improves charging point operator profitability.
