Hierarchical Charge Control of Large Populations of EVs

Cooperation between the controllable load, such as electrical vehicles (EVs) and the generation, provides the power system new operating strategies. A novel hierarchical charge control framework is proposed based on the Benders decomposition for large populations of EVs. The grid, unit, and accurate EV constraints can be considered. On the upper level, the cooperative dispatch scheme between the generation and the EV aggregators is obtained. On...
