TRANSFORMING TRANSMISSION SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT FROM REACTIVE TO PROACTIVE THROUGH ELECTRIC VEHICLE FLEXIBILITY

The reduction of carbon emissions in the transportation sector will be aided by the electrification of transportation in RES-based energy systems. However, the inactive addition of electric vehicles is expected to hinder sustainability efforts owing to the rise in power consumption and the significant peak impacts of charging. The three main charging methods for Electric Vehicles (EVs) in Europe are: Smart Charging (SC), Power Charging (PC), and Vehicle-To-Grid (V2G) that give varying degrees of flexibility are examined in this research. This flexibility is compared to the flexibility provided by interconnections. We depict immediate action and future planning in the power organization using the Balmorel optimization tool, and we advance the state of the art by creating new approaches to stand for battery deterioration & at-home charging. Our results show that, up to the year 2050, any rise in charging flexibility reduces system costs, modifies the energy mix, affects spot prices, and reduces CO2emissions.We quantify the reciprocal benefits of flexible charging and variable generation, which limits the economics of permanently installed batteries and causes solar energy to take the place of wind energy in passive charging. The framework that includes and lacks connection development highlights the interplay between European countries in terms of the power price framework of electric mobility. The condition of the nations with the cheapest and most decarbonizes power mix is harmed beneath the most bendable situation at the EU level, even if the best result is achieved. This necessitates an adjusted coordinating strategy at the EU level.
