Master of Science / Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering / Shelli K. Starrett / This thesis introduces a Vehicle to Grid (V2G) system which coordinates the charging, and discharging among the Electric Vehicles (EVs) and two-test systems, to help with peak power shaving and voltage stability of the system. Allowing EVs to charge and discharge without any control may lead to voltage variations and disturbance to the grid, but if the charging and discharging of the EVs is done in a smart manner, they can help the power network. In this thesis, fuzzy logic controllers (FLC) are used to control the flow of power between the grid and the electric vehicles.
The presented work in this thesis mainly focuses on the control architecture for a V2G station that allows for using EVs batteries to help the grid’s voltage stability. The designed controllers sustain the node voltage, and thus also achieve peak shaving. The proposed architectures are tested on 16 -generator and 6-generator test systems to examine the effectiveness of the proposed designs. Five fuzzy logic schemes are tested to illustrate the V2G system’s ability to influence system voltage stability.
The major contributions of this thesis are as follows:
• FLC based control tool for V2G station present at a weak bus in the system.
• Investigate the effect of the station location and voltage sensitivity.
• Comparison of chargers providing real power versus reactive power.
• Simulation of controller and system interactions in a daily load curve cycle.
Keywords: State of Charge (SOC), Electric Vehicle (EV), Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC), Vehicle to grid (V2G), and Power System Voltage Stability.
