Abstract:
The transition to Electric Vehicles (EVs) introduces challenges for power grid integration, particularly due to the growing demand for charging infrastructure. To support research on smart charging strategies and bidirectional charging applications, this study presents an open-access dataset containing 142 EV charging profiles obtained in a laboratory environment. The dataset includes static charging and discharging scenarios alongside dynamic profiles where the charging power is varied over time. These scenarios are applied to eight commercially available EVs, three of which support bidirectional charging. It features tests in alternating current and direct current charging modes and includes high-resolution time series of grid and vehicle parameters at sub-second intervals. The dataset is technically validated by assessing charging efficiency, reactive power injection, harmonics, and its suitability for development of digital EV models. This dataset supports applications like model validation, grid integration simulations in the context of Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G), charging infrastructure planning, and smart charging strategy development.

Charge is an inherent property of the atomic particles that make up matter and is measured in units called coulombs (C). Matter is composed of atoms, each consisting of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Electrons have a negative charge (-e), while protons...

Charging Conductors By Induction
Generally, conductors like metals do not allow any excess charge to be present on them. Any excess charge added to metals easily flows away, for example, when a metal is placed on the Earth. This process is called earthing.
However, conductors can be charged by a process called induction. For example, consider charging a...
