Work package 5: Analysis of grid infrastructure
Objectives & methodology
- Overall aim:
Analysis of the impact of the mass introduction of EV and PHEV on the grid infrastructure in rural, sub-urban and urban areas
- Specific objectives:
- Definition of additional devices which have to be used or integrated for the mass introduction of EV
- Elaboration of recommendations for the further development of the grid and operational assets
- Development of a new model for the physical grid infrastructure to support recharging of a large number of EV
Tasks
- Simulation of scenarios coming out from WP1 to analyse the impacts on the
- Generation (incl. DER, Central generation mix, RES)
- Distribution
- Storage
- Consumption (for private, public, personal clusters)
- Definition of requirements for the different systems to be developed, the updated rules and procedures to dimension the grid, and the communication infrastructure to be implemented
- Localisation of the different solutions in all potential environments
