Risk Assessment Criteria for Utilizing Dynamic Line Rating in Presence of Electric Vehicles Uncertainty

• Dynamic line rating (DLR) is a grid enhancing technology to enable a more effective use of transmission capacity of existing infrastructure.~The growth in load consumption along with a high integration of electric vehicles (EV) highlights the potential of DLR utilization for reducing the congestion costs and overloading risks.~Selecting the proper lines for DLR implementation is necessary to exploit optimally the benefits of DLR. In this paper, we propose risk assessment criteria to select proper lines for DLR implementation to minimize the system operation costs and the risk of overloading caused by high EV integration.A stochastic method is introduced to model the uncertain behavior of EV in charging stations. Furthermore, we analyze the impact of inherent uncertainties in DLR by comparing different DLR percentiles. The benefits of using DLR in different percentiles are then quantified in terms of supply and interruption costs.The results show improvements in system supply cost, system reliability, and operation risks.
