Automatic Frequency Response for Autonomous Distributed V2G (Vehicle-to-Grid) Using IoT Technology

Abstract

Nowadays, the use of electric vehicle has been increased, due to the increase in fossil fuel and decreasing in its resources. On the other hand environmental pollution is the major concern. On the power systems the charging of Electric Vehicles (EVs) has been imposed. The deregulation of power system with new and major loads introduces the uncertainties of grid which is new challenges of frequency control and stability of power system. In order to overcome this problem EVs as moving batteries are imposed. In this method based on the Grid frequency the charging and discharging of EVs takes place. This technology is so called Vehicle to Grid (V2G). The Arduino microcontroller development board is used to make decisions over the controlling operations. The Internet of Things (IoT) is used for the communication purposes such as collecting data from all sensors and giving information to the authorizers. The simulation is done through the MATLAB / SIMULINK and thus the results illustrate good performance of the proposed method
