Abstract

This paper presents potential impacts on distribution systems from light-duty plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), when these are under the control of aggregators who desire to maximize their energy trading-related profits. The electric load characteristics of light-duty PEVs are developed using the travel pattern from the 2009 National Household Travel Survey. This PEV load is added to the existing non-PEV load within one of the prototypical feeders developed by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.
