To achieve the established environmental goals, a significant transformation is requiredin the Swedish transport sector. This includes a shift away from fossil fuels and a greateremphasis on electrifying a larger portion of the vehicle fleet. The goal of this study is toevaluate the impact on the local distribution grid when integrating a high power chargeradjacent to a mobile battery storage system. In addition an investigation of the energyflows was conducted to assess the continuous operations of charger, battery and electricitygrid. The introduction of high power loads leads to higher power peaks in the system,which may affect the stability with respect to the voltages, currents and harmonics in thegrid. This thesis was conducted in collaboration with Gävle Energi AB, which is a local energycompany that is active in the area around Gävle. In total two models were created inorder to simulate both the energy flows and grid stability. The first model was conductedin MATLAB and used to evaluate the energy flows for the scenarios of low and high load.The second model was conducted in OpenDSS to evaluate the grid stability for a total of6 scenarios. The scenarios are as follows: the initial electricity grid, the grid with a highpower charger integrated and the grid with both a high power charger and a solar parkintegrated, for both low and high load cases. The results of the study showed that high power loads affected the local electricity gridmost during low load since it entailed high load peaks during that period. The effect ofintegrating a high power charger in a grid with radial grid topology is that the voltageis reduced and harmonics increased in loads connected to the same node. The effect ofintegrating a solar park instead increases the voltage and reduces the harmonics in loadsconnected to the same node. The energy flow evaluation showed that the battery hadthe potential to be continuously used for both the low and high load cases. However,during low load the battery had the potential to provide frequency regulating services tomaximize the income.
