This paper proposes a multi-objective queuing charging strategy for electric vehicles (EVs) based on metrics of public interest. It combines common charging modes, such as random charging mode, tariff-guided mode and stop-and-charge mode. It introduces the problem of queuing charging for EVs by considering the realistic imbalances of vehicle-pile ratios in these common modes. A travel model and a charging model were developed in this study.

It improves the convenience of life and reduces the charging cost. The proposed strategy smoothens the EV charging load curve, largely reducing the burden of charging load fluctuations on the grid and achieving a win-win situation for both supply and demand.

Abstract

This paper proposes a multi-objective queuing charging strategy for electric vehicles (EVs) based on metrics of public interest. It combines common charging modes, such as random charging mode, tariff-guided mode and stop-and-charge mode. It introduces the problem of queuing charging for EVs by considering the realistic imbalances of vehicle-pile ratios in these common modes. A travel model and a charging model were developed in this study. Experiments prove that the proposed strategy has the highest comprehensive evaluation index, achieves the aim of low charging cost and high travel rate and considers the queuing problem, which is unavoidable in reality. It improves the convenience of life and reduces the charging cost. The proposed strategy smoothens the EV charging load curve, largely reducing the burden of charging load fluctuations on the grid and achieving a win-win situation for both supply and demand.
