Impact of Dynamic Operating Envelopes on Distribution Network Hosting Capacity for Electric Vehicles
<|reference_start|>Impact of Dynamic Operating Envelopes on Distribution Network Hosting Capacity for Electric Vehicles: The examination of the maximum number of electric vehicles (EVs) that can be integrated into the distribution network (DN) without causing any operational incidents has become increasingly crucial as EV penetration rises. This issue can be addressed by utilizing dynamic operating envelopes (DOEs), which are generated based on the grid status. While DOEs improve the hosting capacity of the DN for EVs (EV-HC) by restricting the operational parameters of the network, they also alter the amount of energy needed for charging each EV, resulting in a decrease in the quality of service (QoS). This study proposes a network-aware hosting capacity framework for EVs (EV-NAHC) that i) aims to assess the effects of DOEs on active distribution networks, ii) introduces a novel definition for HC and calculates the EV-NAHC based on the aggregated QoS of all customers. A small-scale Belgian feeder is utilized to examine the proposed framework. The results show a substantial increase in the EV-NAHC with low, medium, and high-daily charging energy scenarios.<|reference_end|>
