Abstract

This paper deals with the adaption of Microgrid and Electric Vehicle concepts to European grid standards related to power quality. It presents a review of European norms on power quality issues including converters and EVs. Power quality issues and relevant standards dealing with the operation of EVs are discussed for interconnected and islanded (microgrid) mode of operation. Moreover, a review of connection criteria of Distributed Generation units and power quality requirements in various European countries is listed. Finally, recommendations on the adaption of microgrid-EV concepts to European power quality standards are given.
