| Summary: | This article discuss electric vehicle charging scheduling algorithms to minimize the peak load demand. The charging schedule makes use of a time-of-use system and an optimum method that adjusts the amount of electricity used to charge an electric car depending on its battery's state of charge. This study was implemented in a commercial-residential area and considered various constraints to ensure the study practicality. Three scenarios of electric vehicle charging were tested and analyzed. The outcome of the first scenario demonstrated that uncoordinated charging of electric vehicles would cause a new peak in the grid load. For the second scenario, time-of-use scheme was implemented for electric vehicle charging, which was able to reduce peak loads compared to uncoordinated electric vehicle charging. The final scenario demonstrated that the suggested coordinated electric vehicle charging scheduling algorithm successfully reduced uncoordinated charging load by 33% and increased off-peak load by 87.5% while maximizing the charging power of each electric vehicle battery. ? 2024 American Institute of Physics Inc..
