Impacts of electric vehicles on power grid considering time series of TOU

As large amounts of EVs connect to power grid, in the future, this paper proposes the optional mode of TOU (time-of-use) shift the load of EVs to relief the burden of power grid. Analyzing the users' habits without control, this paper establishes single-user and multiple-users charging mode. Simulated by Monte Carlo method, the load with EV and the peak-valley difference will be aggregated. Therefore, EVs' charge-discharge load model considering TOU is proposed. To minimize the peak-valley difference, the paper introduces genetic algorithm to achieve the optimal time series of TOU strategy. Lastly, the numerical example demonstrates the molds in this paper.
