Study of the Impacts of Increasing Electric Vehicles on TVA Power Grid and Potential Mitigation Solutions to Identified Problems

Grants and Contracts Details

Description

Abstract This project aims to perform studies to examine the impacts of connecting a large number of PEVS to TVA grid. Potential problems such as overvoltage, undervoltage, overloading, frequency excursions will be identified. Critical penetration level beyond which unmanaged PEVs will cause serious problems under potential operational scenarios will be identified. Potential solutions based on managed smart charging schemes will be researched and proposed for TVA''s consideration. 1
