| description | Electric utilities are concern with the impacts of new generations of smart appliances such
as Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) on the performances, efficiency, stability and
reliability of the distribution systems. It is well known that random PEVs charging
activities in distribution system largely deteriorates the performance of the distribution
system as it increases power loss, voltage deviation and transformer overload. As a result,
the overall operational cost is increased significantly. These issues can be overcome by
scheduling the PEV charging activities that decides which PEV will take charge in what
time. Many researches have been carried out to mitigate the stated issues of distribution
system by scheduling the PEV charging. This research proposes an optimal PEV charging
coordination incorporating capacitor switching and on-load tap changer (OLTC)
adjustment. The main consideration in this research is to minimize the daily power loss
and voltage deviation. The capacitor and OLTC operation is utilized here in order to
further improvement of voltage profile. It is found that, the proposed method gives
minimum power loss and voltage deviation during the PEV charging activities. To
implement the proposed method, two meta heuristic optimizations- binary particle swarm
optimization (BPSO) and binary grey wolf optimization (BGWO) are employed. Apart
from that, time of use electrical tariff is considered to minimize the charging cost when
the PEV charging coordination is made. The proposed approach is coded in MATLAB
and tested on modified 449 nodes residential distribution system. It consists of 22 low
voltage feeders and each feeder has 19 nodes which represent each residential household.
For the wide range of feasibility of the proposed method, different PEV penetration levels
(16%, 32%, 47%, 63%) are studied. The simulation results for optimal PEV chargingcoordination incorporating capacitor switching and OLTC adjustment showed that
proposed method reduced the system stresses and enhanced the performances of PEV
charging coordination.
