Architecture and method for providing priority charging for government authorized emergency electrical vehicles (AEEV)

The US government predicts more than 1 million electric vehicles (EVs), on U.S. roadways by 2015, and these numbers will increase exponentially in the future. However, the power grid cannot furnish the charging for numerous EVs at a given time mainly because of its energy production capabilities, peak usage, and distribution infrastructure. Some studies indicate that adopting “smart” charging, for example, scheduling EV charging, can alleviate the challenge. Nevertheless, such strategies are not useful for emergency and first responders’ vehicles. This thesis proposes a solution that provides priority treatment for government Authorized Emergency Electrical Vehicles (AEEV). The thesis proposes a complete architecture for providing priority charging service to the government authorized electric vehicles from any utility operator. To realize such a service, this proposal also suggests modifications required in the IEC15118 and IEC 61850 protocol suites. These protocols provide communication between Vehicle and Grid.
