Abstract

[Objective] This study addresses the problems of the impact of the high frequency and high-power charging of electric trucks on the stable operation of the power system and the insufficient number of charging stations. [Methods] First, the power consumption characteristics of electric trucks are modeled by considering the weather temperature, traffic flow, loaded cargo volume, terrain, and other factors. Second, a path planning model is constructed by using the charging cost of electric trucks and minimum cost of battery loss as the objective function, and a genetic algorithm is used to solve the path planning model according to the logistic order information to obtain dynamic paths. Finally, the Monte Carlo method is used to sample electric trucks randomly and obtain the spatial distribution of electric trucks, judge the charging strategy according to the time window and remaining state of charge of the point of arrival at the customer, and add up the electric truck charging loads in the region to determine the spatial and temporal distributions of the charging loads. The actual traffic network in Tangshan City was used to carry out the simulation validation. [Results] The results showed that, compared with the shortest path algorithm, the peak charging load of electric trucks decreased by 6%, the overall charging load decreased by 2%, and the travel cost decreased by 20,410 yuan overall after adopting the proposed path planning method, which reduced the impact on the grid and the user driving cost. In addition, the charging load was affected by seasonal temperatures, and the peak charging load in winter was 6.3% higher than that in summer. [Conclusion] The proposed load forecasting method has a certain degree of authenticity and rationality, and aligns with the real distribution paths of electric trucks.

With national targets for carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining popularity owing to their advantages of being green, low-carbon, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly. EVs have both load and energy storage characteristics, and their charge-discharge behavior is random and fluctuates in time and space. Accurate prediction of the spatiotemporal distribution of EV charging and discharging loads is the basis for studying the influence of EV entering the grid, power grid planning and operation, and interaction with the power grid. The main factors influencing the prediction of the spatiotemporal distribution of the EV charging load are analyzed. The modeling of the charging load and prediction method for the spatial and temporal distributions are systematically described. Considering that electric vehicles can be used as mobile energy-storage devices to participate in grid interactions, the discharge potential is evaluated, and the research scenario of V2G technology is reviewed. Finally, the challenges faced by existing research methods are summarized and discussed.

Abstract
针对电动汽车充电行为不确定性问题,建立了基于出行链理论的电动汽车出行及电池电量变化模型,提出了引入马尔可夫决策过程(Markov decision processes, MDP)的电动汽车用户充电行为分析方法。该方法将用户充电行为作为马尔可夫决策集,根据车辆在各区域间的转移概率构造状态转移矩阵,设置用户满意度指标作为决策过程报酬函数,通过求解有限阶段总报酬准则得到电动汽车用户在每个决策点处的最优充电决策。算例部分根据抽取电动汽车特征量数据进行马尔可夫决策过程仿真,得出充电负荷的时间与空间分布情况,通过与传统蒙特卡洛方法进行对比表明该文所提方法可以较好地模拟用户整个出行过程中的充电行为,反映充电需求的时空分布特点;同时,分析了不同区域、不同停车时长情况下电动汽车的不同充电行为,能够为电动汽车充电桩的规划建设提供参考。

In view of the uncertainty of electric vehicle charging behavior, models of electric vehicle travel and battery electricity change based on trip chain theory are established, and an analysis method for charging behavior of electric vehicles by introducing the Markov decision processes(MDP) is proposed. The method takes the user's charging behavior as a Markov decision set, constructs a state transfer matrix according to the transfer probability between various regions. The user satisfaction index is set up as the reward function of the decision process. The optimal charging decision of the electric vehicle users at every decision point is obtained by solving the finite stage total reward criterion. The example is simulated by extracting characteristic data of electric vehicles, results show the time and space distribution of electric vehicle charging load. Compared with the traditional Monte Carlo method, the proposed MDP method can simulate user charging behavior more accurately and reflect the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of charging demand. At the same time, different charging behavior of electric vehicles in different areas and different parking hours is analyzed, which can provide support for the planning and construction of electric vehicle charging piles.

Abstract
现有的电动汽车充电负荷预测研究中缺乏对用户出行行为和交通路况的精确描述,为此构建了时空图谱注意力网络,对基于城市兴趣点的出行需求和道路交通流量的时空分布进行学习和预测,并计及了日期类型、天气温度和交通事件的影响。通过基于出行时间指数(travel time index,TTI)的Dijkstra算法得到耗时最短的行驶路径,并建立了计及交通路况和气温影响的电动汽车能耗模型以及考虑距离远近和综合充电费用的充电站选择决策模型。基于西安市二环区域的实际出行需求和交通数据,对私家车、出租车和网约车3种用途电动汽车的充电需求进行了预测,并分析了出行需求变化对城市各网格空间内充电站快、慢充负荷的影响,为充电设施的规划提供了参考和依据。

Existing research on charging load prediction of electric vehicle (EV) lacks accurate descriptions of user travel behaviors and traffic conditions. Therefore, a spatio-temporal graph attention network is constructed to learn and predict the spatio-temporal distribution of travel demand considering urban points of interest and road traffic flow, taking into account the effect of date type, weather temperature and traffic events. The Dijkstra algorithm based on the travel time index (TTI) is used to obtain the shortest travel time. An EV energy consumption model that takes into account the impact of traffic conditions and air temperature, and a charging station selection decision model that considers distance and comprehensive charging cost, are both established. According to the actual travel demand and traffic data of the second ring area in Xian, the charging demand of electric vehicles for private cars, taxis and internet-hailed vehicles is predicted, and the changes in travel demand are analyzed for charging stations in various grid spaces in the city. The EV charging load prediction provides a reference and basis for the planning of charging facilities.
