Abstract

The popularity of electric vehicles requires charging station to satisfy their charging demand. The huge charging demand poses a great challenge to the power grid. Therefore, integrating renewable energy source and battery energy storage could be a possible promising solution. However, the complex system configuration and multiple stochastic factors complicate the planning and energy management. In this dissertation, the planning, control and coordination of single/multiple charging stations are thoroughly investigated. All proposed solutions are studied by comprehensive simulations and comparisons to verify their performance.
