IGREENGRID Conference on Scalability and Replicability

Why the need to test EV and EVSE grid integration

Current predictions state the amount of cars with an electric plug in will reach ~70-85% in 2030.

(This estimate includes HEV, PHEV and EV)

The given penetration of EVs (2015) is very

unlikely to cause car sourced grid errors but this can be expected to change as EVs roll out more and more.

Current evaluations show that grid failures will first occur locally on a low voltage grid level with relatively low penetration rates. Resulting in the in-ability of EVs to charge

COTEVOS towards the unified testing infrastructure

• The COTEVOS Reference Architecture aims to be a framework for the testing of: Interoperability is a product or system, whose interfaces are

completely understood, to work with other products or systems, present or future, without any restricted access or implementation

Conformance is how well something, such as a product or system, meets a specified standard

Conformance Interoperability

COTEVOS towards the unified testing infrastructure

Is standardization alone the solution? • Is simple testing against standards sufficient?

• Is it enough to build test infrastructure for the existing standards?

5

Interoperability contains a future view

Tecnalia

COTEVOS towards the unified testing infrastructure

• A very first step prior to defining a reference architecture is to look around what is already there

6

Tecnalia

The COTEVOS Reference Architecture – Describes all the actors and their interfaces of the current e-

mobility system

– Provides a context for use- and test-case definition

– Strong alignment with existing initiatives

– Layered approach enables a future evolution of the architecture as the e-mobility system develops

COTEVOS towards the unified testing infrastructure

• COTEVOS Interface Reference Architecture – 3 “Layer” Topology (some topological similarity to the SGAM)

• Layer 1 - Actor/Interface Layer

• Layer 2 - Service/Function Layer

• Layer 3 - Physical/Test Stand Layer

COTEVOS – Reference Architecture Actor / Interface Layer

Tecnalia 9

• The Actor / Interface Layer of the COTEVOS RA includes:

– Actor definition • first definition in alignment with M/490

– Interface definition

• Based on standard and nonstandard interfaces

– All functionalities are covered, regardless of the actor which implements them.

• The Service / Function Layer of the COTEVOS RA includes: – Based on the idea that functions and actors are not always directly

coupled. Use-case depended coupling

– Allows a separation of concerns within the eMobility system

– resembles of the functional layer of SGAM

From Use Cases to Test Cases

• Round robin tests will be used for inter-laboratory comparison: first basic tests have been already performed

• Define test suites (like the WGI BAIOP) that cover a use case

• The test suite will consist of different test cases (steps) that need to conform to a specific standard e.g. – EV requests a charging schedule to EVSE (e.g. conform IEC15118) – EVSE operator sends the proposed charge profile to EVSE (e.g.

conform IEC15118)
