Unit Commitment of a Power System Including Battery Swap Stations Under a Low-Carbon Economy
Battery swap stations (BSSs) are of great importance as an energy supplement for electric vehicles (EVs). The batteries in these stations not only charge instantaneous energy from the grid (G2B) but also discharge stored energy to the grid (B2G). This bidirectional energy consuming scheme provides m...

| description | Battery swap stations (BSSs) are of great importance as an energy supplement for electric vehicles (EVs). The batteries in these stations not only charge instantaneous energy from the grid (G2B) but also discharge stored energy to the grid (B2G). This bidirectional energy consuming scheme provides more flexibility to the grid operation options, and henceforth, may bring in new challenges to the systems as well. In the meanwhile, the carbon trading mechanisms for the low-carbon economy can also have impacts on the generation scheduling of the power system. Therefore, a unit commitment (UC) model of the power system with BSSs in the low-carbon economic background is proposed to coordinate the G2B/B2G process of BSSs. Our model weighted the carbon dioxide emission in the cost function and tightened the constraint set with BSSs limits and the carbon trading mechanism. Case studies on a 10-unit test system demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model. |
