Charge Management Optimization for Future TOU Rates

Abstract: SummaryThe effectiveness of future time of use (TOU) rates to enable managed charging depends on the vehicle's flexibility and the benefits to owners. This paper adopts opportunity, delayed, and smart charging methods to quantify these impacts, flexibilities, and benefits. Simulation results show that delayed and smart charging methods can shift most charging events to lower TOU rate periods without compromising the charged energy and individual driver mobility needs.

“…This discussion raises the questions of whether a time-of-use or hourly-pricing rate structure is preferable. Our view is that either can work and that the main issue is getting as many EVs as possible on time-variant rates aimed at ensuring charging occurs when it is best for consumers, the grid, and the environment [23]. That having been said, as transportation electrifies and there are millions of electric vehicles on the road, hourly pricing may prove the better alternative.…”
