| Summary: | Advances in wireless power transfer technology provide the possibility to construct electrified roads and charge electric vehicles driving on the road. Dynamic charging mode enables the contactless interaction of electric vehicles with the power grid and has a promising prospect, but it may also bring about potential challenges to the power grid such as reliability deterioration. Electric buses serve as the forerunner to use this new charging mode due to their fixed driving patterns. Thus, it is needed to investigate its potential impact on power distribution system reliability. In this paper, first, the electric bus dynamic charging model is constructed, and then the impacts of this model on power distribution system reliability are studied. Simulation results indicate that compared with the non-dynamic charging mode, the electric bus dynamic charging mode does not cause additional deterioration to the reliability performance and has a slightly better effect.
