| contents | Uncoordinated electric vehicle (EV) charging is altering residential load patterns and pushing distribution transformers to operate beyond their limits. These outcomes can be offset by exploiting the flexibility in work schedules (hybrid, remote vs. in-person) of EV owners, particularly when combined with rooftop photovoltaic (PV) generation. However, this phenomenon has not been explored in-depth yet. This paper addresses this research gap by introducing weekly work schedule-aware robust and chance-constrained optimization formulations for EV charging coordination to determine a transformer's EV hosting capacity. The results obtained using data from a residential feeder in Arizona indicate that an intelligent combination of work schedule flexibility with PV generation can help power utilities effectively manage changing grid demands. |
