Abstract

The rapid expansion of plug-in-electric vehicles has led to the requirement for advanced charging and power delivery techniques. Smart transformers, AC and DC fast charging techniques have the ability to connect a vehicle to the distribution network at very high power levels. If this connection is not properly utilised, a detrimental impact on the distribution network could occur. By utilising the vehicle-to-grid technique alongside smart scheduling for charging, plug-in electric vehicles can support the distribution network. Improving the compatibility between different types of electric vehicles and the distribution grid can be achieved by diversifying charging methods to a multi-platform charging solution. Advanced wireless charging methods can allow plug-in electric vehicles to travel long distances without stopping or requiring a charging station. This chapter will discuss different types of charging technologies and the utilisation of vehicle-to-grid support on a distributed network.
