“…In addition, EV charging effects on the electric grid depend on the state of charge (SOC) and capacity of the battery, load profiles of existing feeders and charging modes of the EV. This makes operation and planning of electric grid more complex with the rise in EV penetration [5]. The EV charging parameters are usually modeled using stochastic methods to capture the uncertainties.…”

Concerns about the need for clean energy and the need to reduce green-house gases have led researchers and engineers to explore adoption of electric vehicle technology. Electric vehicles hold a promising future due to their efficiency, low maintenance cost and zero carbon emission. Unfortunately, due to metric range drawbacks associated with electric vehicles, large scale adoption of electric vehicles still remains relatively low. To solve this issue of range anxiety, optimal placement and sizing methods of electric vehicle infrastructure is essential. This paper presents a review of optimal siting of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. It discusses impacts of electric vehicle charging loads on the distribution network and how large scale electric vehicle penetration would affect the grid. Further, the benefits of electric vehicles on the distribution network as well as the integration of renewable energy resources are presented.
