Potential Implications of PHEV’s on the scheduling of Electric Generation Spinning Reserve Bruce Wollenberg
Some basics of power system operation • Generation must equal load plus transmission losses (about 5%)
Some basics of power system operation • What happens if a generator fails? • When load is greater than generation the system slows down • If nothing is done the system shuts down completely
Some basics of power system operation • We could remove load when a generator fails • This has been proposed in California • Generator lost • Remove large water pumping loads
Concept of Spinning Reserve • Enough generators are not loaded to 100% • Loss of a generator can be made up with remaining generators • No load lost
Reserve Spinning reserve
Spinning Reserve costs money • Generation companies must be paid to • Run more generators than necessary • Lower output on some generators to provide reserve • Standard electric operation practice is to supply sufficient reserve to withstand loss of the largest generator and the second largest generator
Unique possible contribution of PHEV’s • Assume that when the PHEV is plugged in there is also a data connection made to the on board computer in the car • Assume that future parking garages provide for electrical/data connections for PHEV’s during the daytime hours • Control signals can be sent to cars to stop charging, to generate off the car’s battery, to generate using the car’s engine
PHEV’s actions in emergency POWER FLOW Charging Step 1: stop charging Step 2: Generate from Battery POWER FLOW POWER FLOW Step 2: Generate from Car engine
Numbers • Assume 100,000 PHEV’s • Assume only 5 kW charging or generating per vehicle • Total when stopping charging 500 MW (Mega watts) • Total additional if generating 500 MW
Extra Costs • Power Electronics to take car battery voltage and convert to 120/240 VAC • Power/data connections in parking garages • Addition of data connection to power connection in homes
