Procedural simulation method for aggregating charging load model of private electric vehicle cluster

The usage of each private electric vehicle (PrEV) is a repeating behavior process composed by driving, parking, discharging and charging, in which PrEV shows obvious procedural characteristics. To analyze the procedural characteristics, this paper proposes a procedural simulation method. The method aggregates the behavior process regularity of the PrEV cluster to model the cluster's charging load. Firstly, the basic behavior process of each PrEV is constructed by referring the statistical datasets of the traditional private non-electric vehicles. Secondly, all the basic processes are set as a simulation starting point, and they are dynamically reconstructed by several constraints. The simulation continues until the steady state of charge (SOC) distribution and behavior regularity of the PrEV cluster are obtained. Lastly, based on the obtained SOC and behavior regularity information, the PrEV cluster's behavior processes are simulated again to make the aggregating charging load model available. Examples for several scenarios show that the proposed method can improve the reliability of modeling by grasping the PrEV cluster's procedural characteristics.
