The Control Strategies for Charging and Discharging of Electric Vehicles in the Vehicle–Grid Interaction Modes

In response to the challenges posed by large-scale, uncoordinated electric vehicle charging on the power grid, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology has been developed. This technology seeks to synchronize electric vehicles with the power grid, improving the stability of their connections and fostering positive energy exchanges between them. The key component for implementing V2G technology is the bidirectional AC/DC converter. This study concentrates on the non-isolated bidirectional AC/DC converter, providing a detailed analysis of its two-stage operation and creating a mathematical model. A dual closed-loop control structure for voltage and current is designed based on nonlinear control theory, along with a constant current charge–discharge control strategy. Furthermore, midpoint potential balance is achieved through zero-sequence voltage injection control, and power signals for the switching devices are generated using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) technology. A simulation model of the V2G system is then constructed in MATLAB/Simulink for analysis and validation. The findings demonstrate that the control strategy proposed in this paper improves the system’s robustness, dynamic performance, and resistance to interference, thus reducing the effects of large-scale, uncoordinated electric vehicle charging on the power grid.

Abstract

In response to the challenges posed by large-scale, uncoordinated electric vehicle charging on the power grid, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology has been developed. This technology seeks to synchronize electric vehicles with the power grid, improving the stability of their connections and fostering positive energy exchanges between them. The key component for implementing V2G technology is the bidirectional AC/DC converter. This study concentrates on the non-isolated bidirectional AC/DC converter, providing a detailed analysis of its two-stage operation and creating a mathematical model. A dual closed-loop control structure for voltage and current is designed based on nonlinear control theory, along with a constant current charge–discharge control strategy. Furthermore, midpoint potential balance is achieved through zero-sequence voltage injection control, and power signals for the switching devices are generated using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) technology. A simulation model of the V2G system is then constructed in MATLAB/Simulink for analysis and validation. The findings demonstrate that the control strategy proposed in this paper improves the system’s robustness, dynamic performance, and resistance to interference, thus reducing the effects of large-scale, uncoordinated electric vehicle charging on the power grid.
