Reliability Study of Electrical Distribution System with Local and Interregional Bidirectional Centralized Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

In this thesis, a method was developed to evaluate the impact of bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charging on power system reliability using Synergi Electric software. Load profiles, EV availability, EV state-of-charge (SOC) were important factors considered in this study. The analysis in this study is based on local and interregional vehicle-to-grid (V2G) implementation at different load points in the system. In general, local V2G implementation is observed to be more effective in improving system reliability over interregional V2G power flow. System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI) and System Average Interruption Frequency Index (SAIFI) improvements were observed to increase with increasing SOC but are less progressive between higher SOCs. Based on the simulation results, the method proves to be sufficient in calculating SAIDI and SAIFI reliability indices as the simulation results are corroborated with theory.
