reliability modeling of different types of electric vehicles in renewable applications

The widespread growth of electric vehicles in distribution networks could be a variety of challenges and opportunities for the electricity network. this issue is important since the owners of electric vehicles are trying to maximize their profits, which, in turn, can cause many problems such as increased losses, congestion, and increase network costs. in distribution networks. therefore, it is required to study different aspects of this new technology such as the reliability and the failure rate. for this purpose, the presented paper introduces a reliability model based on the markov theory for different types of electric vehicles, and the main novelty is to determine the impact of the failure rate of the composed components of each electric vehicle on the overall failure of the vehicle. in the proposed reliability models for these electric vehicles, the failure of the main composed components is considered. in order to compare different types of electric vehicles from the reliability viewpoint, the numerical results associated with the reliability evaluation of these vehicles are given. it is deduced from the numerical results associated with the reliability evaluation of different types of electric vehicles, and the reliability of the compound plug-in hybrid electric vehicle is more than the other technologies.
