Abstract The global surge in electric vehicle (EV) adoption is proportionally expanding the EV charging station (EVCS) infrastructure, thereby increasing the attack surface and potential impact of security breaches within this critical ecosystem. While ISO 15118 standardizes EV-EVCS communication, its underspecified security guidelines and the variability in manufacturers’ implementations frequently result in vulnerabilities that can disrupt charging services, compromise user data, or affect power grid stability. This research introduces a systematic black-box fuzzing methodology, accompanied by an open-source tool, to proactively identify and mitigate such security flaws in EVCS firmware operating under ISO 15118.

Abstract The accelerated global adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is driving significant expansion and increasing complexity within the EV charging infrastructure, consequently presenting novel and pressing cybersecurity challenges. While considerable effort has focused on preventative cybersecurity measures, a critical deficiency persists in structured methodologies for digital forensic analysis following security incidents, a gap exacerbated by system heterogeneity, distributed digital evidence, and inconsistent logging practices which hinder effective incident reconstruction and attribution. This paper addresses this critical need by proposing a novel, data-driven forensic framework tailored to the EV charging infrastructure, focusing on the systematic identification, classification,… More >

Abstract This paper presents a novel machine learning (ML) enhanced energy management framework for residential microgrids. It dynamically integrates solar photovoltaics (PV), wind turbines, lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS), and bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charging. The proposed architecture addresses the limitations of traditional rule-based controls by incorporating ConvLSTM for real-time forecasting, a Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) reinforcement learning agent for optimal BESS scheduling, and federated learning for EV charging prediction—ensuring both privacy and efficiency. Simulated in a high-fidelity MATLAB/Simulink environment, the system achieves 98.7% solar/wind forecast accuracy and 98.2% Maximum Power Point… More >

Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) are gradually being deployed in the transportation sector. Although they have a high impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, their penetration is challenged by their random energy demand and difficult scheduling of their optimal charging. To cope with these problems, this paper presents a novel approach for photovoltaic grid-connected microgrid EV charging station energy demand forecasting.

Abstract Considering the uncertainty of grid connection of electric vehicle charging stations and the uncertainty of new energy and residential electricity load, a spatio-temporal decoupling strategy of dynamic reactive power optimization based on clustering-local relaxation-correction is proposed. Firstly, the k-medoids clustering algorithm is used to divide the reduced power scene into periods. Then, the discrete variables and continuous variables are optimized in the same period of time. Finally, the number of input groups of parallel capacitor banks (CB) in multiple periods is fixed, and then the secondary static reactive power optimization correction is carried out by… More >

Abstract This article proposes a multi-tiered fault detection system for series-connected lithium-ion battery modules. Improper use of batteries can lead to electrolyte decomposition, resulting in the formation of lithium dendrites. These dendrites may pierce the separator, leading to the failure of the insulation layer between electrodes and causing micro short circuits. When a micro short circuit occurs, the electrolyte typically undergoes exothermic reactions, leading to thermal runaway and posing a safety risk to users. Relying solely on temperature-based judgment mechanisms within the battery management system often results in delayed intervention. To address this issue, the article More >

Abstract The high proportion of uncertain distributed power sources and the access to large-scale random electric vehicle (EV) charging resources further aggravate the voltage fluctuation of the distribution network, and the existing research has not deeply explored the EV active-reactive synergistic regulating characteristics, and failed to realize the multi-timescale synergistic control with other regulating means, For this reason, this paper proposes a multilevel linkage coordinated optimization strategy to reduce the voltage deviation of the distribution network. Firstly, a capacitor bank reactive power compensation voltage control model and a distributed photovoltaic (PV) active-reactive power regulation model are… More >
