Abstract

Dynamic wireless charging (DWC) is an emerging technology that enables the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) while they are in motion. However, previous load modeling methods have not thoroughly explored the detailed analysis of DWC load characteristics. Existing research only considers the single-node supply mode for dynamic wireless charging roads (DWCRs), and the assessment of operational risks arising from the uncertain DWC loads has not been addressed. This paper begins by conducting an equivalent circuit analysis of a typical EV DWC system with multiple segmented coils. We present a more accurate trapezoidal power model for a single EV. Subsequently, we model the aggregated EV DWC load, accounting for traffic flow and headway using Poisson and negative exponential distribution functions, respectively. In the operation process, we consider a multi-node supply mode for DWCRs. To address the inaccuracy of long-term predictions, we propose a rolling optimization model to coordinate DWC and renewables with heterogeneous uncertainties by introducing a risk metric to manage potential uncertain risks. The proposed optimization model is transformed into a mixed-integer second-order cone programming (MISOCP) problem after convex relaxation. Finally, we conduct case studies to validate the proposed methods.
