文摘The rapid proliferation of electric vehicle(EV)charging infrastructure introduces critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities to power grids system.This study presents an innovative anomaly detection framework for EV charging stations,addressing the unique challenges posed by third-party aggregation platforms.Our approach integrates node equations-based on the parameter identification with a novel deep learning model,xDeepCIN,to detect abnormal data reporting indicative of aggregation attacks.We employ a graph-theoretic approach to model EV charging networks and utilize Markov Chain Monte Carlo techniques for accurate parameter estimation.The xDeepCIN model,incorporating a Compressed Interaction Network,has the ability to capture complex feature interactions in sparse,high-dimensional charging data.Experimental results on both proprietary and public datasets demonstrate significant improvements in anomaly detection performance,with F1-scores increasing by up to 32.3%for specific anomaly types compared to traditional methods,such as wide&deep and DeepFM(Factorization-Machine).Our framework exhibits robust scalability,effectively handling networks ranging from 8 to 85 charging points.Furthermore,we achieve real-time monitoring capabilities,with parameter identification completing within seconds for networks up to 1000 nodes.This research contributes to enhancing the security and reliability of renewable energy systems against evolving cyber threats,offering a comprehensive solution for safeguarding the rapidly expanding EV charging infrastructure.

文摘Considering the uncertainty of grid connection of electric vehicle charging stations and the uncertainty of new energy and residential electricity load,a spatio-temporal decoupling strategy of dynamic reactive power optimization based on clustering-local relaxation-correction is proposed.Firstly,the k-medoids clustering algorithm is used to divide the reduced power scene into periods.Then,the discrete variables and continuous variables are optimized in the same period of time.Finally,the number of input groups of parallel capacitor banks(CB)in multiple periods is fixed,and then the secondary static reactive power optimization correction is carried out by using the continuous reactive power output device based on the static reactive power compensation device(SVC),the new energy grid-connected inverter,and the electric vehicle charging station.According to the characteristics of the model,a hybrid optimization algorithm with a cross-feedback mechanism is used to solve different types of variables,and an improved artificial hummingbird algorithm based on tent chaotic mapping and adaptive mutation is proposed to improve the solution efficiency.The simulation results show that the proposed decoupling strategy can obtain satisfactory optimization resultswhile strictly guaranteeing the dynamic constraints of discrete variables,and the hybrid algorithm can effectively solve the mixed integer nonlinear optimization problem.

文摘The high proportion of uncertain distributed power sources and the access to large-scale random electric vehicle(EV)charging resources further aggravate the voltage fluctuation of the distribution network,and the existing research has not deeply explored the EV active-reactive synergistic regulating characteristics,and failed to realize themulti-timescale synergistic control with other regulatingmeans,For this reason,this paper proposes amultilevel linkage coordinated optimization strategy to reduce the voltage deviation of the distribution network.Firstly,a capacitor bank reactive power compensation voltage control model and a distributed photovoltaic(PV)activereactive power regulationmodel are established.Additionally,an external characteristicmodel of EVactive-reactive power regulation is developed considering the four-quadrant operational characteristics of the EVcharger.Amultiobjective optimization model of the distribution network is then constructed considering the time-series coupling constraints of multiple types of voltage regulators.A multi-timescale control strategy is proposed by considering the impact of voltage regulators on active-reactive EV energy consumption and PV energy consumption.Then,a four-stage voltage control optimization strategy is proposed for various types of voltage regulators with multiple time scales.Themulti-objective optimization is solved with the improvedDrosophila algorithmto realize the power fluctuation control of the distribution network and themulti-stage voltage control optimization.Simulation results validate that the proposed voltage control optimization strategy achieves the coordinated control of decentralized voltage control resources in the distribution network.It effectively reduces the voltage deviation of the distribution network while ensuring the energy demand of EV users and enhancing the stability and economic efficiency of the distribution network.

文摘Aiming at the problem of increasing the peak-to-valley difference of grid load and the rising cost of user charging caused by the disorderly charging of large-scale electric vehicles,this paper proposes a coordinated charging scheduling strategy for multiple types of electric vehicles based on the degree of urgency of vehicle use.First,considering the range loss characteristics,dynamic time-sharing tariff mechanism,and user incentive policy in the lowtemperature environment of northern winter,a differentiated charging model is constructed for four types of vehicles:family cars,official cars,buses,and cabs.Then,we innovatively introduce the urgency parameter of charging demand for multiple types of vehicles and dynamically divide the emergency and non-emergency charging modes according to the difference between the regular charging capacity and the user’s minimum power demand.When the conventional charging capacity is less than the minimum power demand of the vehicle within the specified time,it is the emergency vehicle demand,and this type of vehicle is immediately charged in fast charging mode after connecting to the grid.On the contrary,it is a non-emergency demand,and the vehicle is connected to the grid to choose the appropriate time to charge in conventional charging mode.Finally,by optimizing the objective function to minimize the peakto-valley difference between the grid and the vehicle owner’s charging cost,and designing the charging continuity constraints to avoid battery damage,it ensures that the vehicle is efficiently dispatched under the premise of meeting the minimum power demand.Simulation results show that the proposed charging strategy can reduce the charging cost of vehicle owners by 26.33%,reduce the peak-to-valley difference rate of the grid by 29.8%,and significantly alleviate the congestion problem during peak load hours,compared with the disordered charging mode,while ensuring that the electric vehicles are not overcharged and meet the electricity demand of vehicle owners.This paper solves the problems of the existing research on the singularity of vehicle models and the lack of environmental adaptability and provides both economic and practical solutions for the cooperative optimization of electric vehicles and power grids in multiple scenarios.

文摘With increasingly serious environmental pollution and the energy crisis,fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles have been considered as an ideal alternative to traditional hybrid electric vehicles.Nevertheless,the total costs of fuel cell systems are still too high,thus limiting the further development of fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles.This paper presents an energy management strategy(EMS)based on deep reinforcement learning for the energy management of fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles.The energy management model of a fuel cell hybrid electric bus and its main components are established.Considering the power response characteristics of the fuel cell system,the power change rate of the fuel cell system is reasonably limited and introduced as action variables into the network of Double Deep Q-Learning(DDQL),and a novel DDQL-based EMS is developed for the fuel cell hybrid electric bus.Subsequently,a comparative test is conducted with the DP-based and the Rule-based EMS to analyze the performance of the DDQL-based EMS.The results indicate that the proposed EMS achieves good fuel economy performance,with an improvement of 15.4%compared to the Rule-based EMS under the training scenarios.In terms of generalization performance,the proposed EMS also achieves good fuel economy performance,which improves by 13.3%compared to the Rule-based energy management strategy under the testing scenario.

文摘To address the problem of high lifespan loss and poor state of charge(SOC)balance of electric vehicles(EVs)participating in grid peak shaving,an improved golden eagle optimizer(IGEO)algorithm for EV grouping control strategy is proposed for peak shaving sce-narios.First,considering the difference between peak and valley loads and the operating costs of EVs,a peak shaving model for EVs is constructed.Second,the design of IGEO has improved the global exploration and local development capabilities of the golden eagle optimizer(GEO)algorithm.Subsequently,IGEO is used to solve the peak shaving model and obtain the overall EV grid connected charging and discharging instructions.Next,using the k-means algorithm,EVs are dynamically divided into priority charging groups,backup groups,and priority discharging groups based on SOC differences.Finally,a dual layer power distribution scheme for EVs is designed.The upper layer determines the charging and discharging sequences and instructions for the three groups of EVs,whereas the lower layer allocates the charging and discharging instructions for each group to each EV.The proposed strategy was simulated and verified,and the results showed that the designed IGEO had faster optimization speed and higher optimization accuracy.The pro-posed EV grouping control strategy effectively reduces the peak-valley difference in the power grid,reduces the operational life loss of EVs,and maintains a better SOC balance for EVs.

文摘The integration of eco-driving and cooperative adaptive cruise control(CACC)with platoon cooperative control(eco-CACC)has emerged as a pivotal approach for improving vehicle energy efficiency.Nonetheless,the prevailing eco-CACC implementations still exhibit limitations in fully harnessing the potential energy savings.This can be attributed to the intricate nature of the problem,characterized by its high nonlinearity and non-convexity,making it challenging for conventional solving methods to find solutions.In this paper,a novel strategy based on a decentralized model predictive control(MPC)framework,called predictive ecological cooperative control(PECC),is proposed for vehicle platoon control on hilly roads,aiming to maximize the overall energy efficiency of the platoon.Unlike most existing literature that focuses on suboptimal coordination under predefined leading vehicle trajectories,this strategy employs an approach based on the combination of a long short-term memory network(LSTM)and genetic algorithm(GA)optimization(GA-LSTM)to predict the future speed of the leading vehicle.Notably,a function named the NotchFilter function(NF(?))is introduced to transform the hard state constraints in the eco-CACC problem,thereby alleviating the burden of problem-solving.Finally,through simulation comparisons between PECC and a strategy based on the common eco-CACC modifications,the effectiveness of PECC in improving platoon energy efficiency is demonstrated.
