Final Year Project

Project Title

Effects of Electric Vehicle Penetration on a Distribution Network in Pakistan

Description

The project is about analyzing the effects of EV penetration on a distribution network in Karachi. According to the current government's policy from 2021, 90% of all vehicle sales in Pakistan in 2040 are supposed to be EVs. Now, given that EVs have a great deal of sustainable benefits attached with them it is crucial to understand the criticalities that accompany them. With the penetration of EVs at the very rate that the policy suggests, there would be a significant surge in the electricity demand and Karachi's distribution network alone will be overburdened with excess electricity demand that the supply cannot meet in presence of a frail grid infrastructure. So, our team is designing a load flow model to analyze and simulate Karachi's certain distribution network, gauging distribution grid and equipment load stress due to EVs, the analysis of which would allow drafting of a sustainable demand management policy.
