Modeling and architectural frame work of off-board V2G integrator for smart grid

Abstract

The serious environmental concerns and growing oil demands have influenced the development of Electrical Vehicles (EV). The group of EVs can contribute largely to the grid requirements and participate in power transaction in order to meet the load demands. The Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) helps in maintaining the power system stability for a short duration of time. The Off-Board and On-Board are two types integrators used for connecting EVs to the electric grid. In this paper the Off-Board V2G integrator framework is proposed. The modeling and simulation is carried out using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The V2G (discharging) operation is considered with two EVs connected to the grid.
