Abstract :
This paper presents a reference architecture and a control scheme for the aggregation and management of electric vehicle (EV) load at medium voltage level. The focus is put on the problem of EV load reprofiling, aimed at the procurement of active demand (AD) services to interested grid/market actors. The proposed approach achieves AD product composition always guaranteeing the respect of grid constraints as well as user constraints on the charging processes. Simulations are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
