EVs recharging management to maintain high PQ levels in LV islanded networks

The paper proposes a methodological approach to manage the electric vehicles recharging in an isolated power system characterized by low short circuit power. Focusing on harmonic disturbances, current harmonics injected in the network depend on the specific EV power converter. The model carried out allows for the evaluation of harmonic disturbances under variable conditions for non-linear loads and their harmonic spectra. The methodology allows estimating both current and voltage total harmonic distortion (THDV, THDI) at the point of common coupling (PCC).
