Abstract

This article explores the domain of accurate Electric Vehicle (EV) charge prediction, a crucial aspect of the energy consumption system. Predicting EV energy consumption is challenging due to the dynamic dependence and heterogeneity. Despite various approaches proposed in previous studies for intelligent charging, many models rely on limited inputs and ignore the non-linear interactivity between different time series. Moreover, to our knowledge, previous research has not considered the number of connected EVs during the charging procedure. This paper develops an attention-based recurrent convolutional neural network model (LA-RCNN) designed to forecast EV charging load using multivariate time series inputs, including meteorological data and the number of connected users. The proposed model incorporates multiplicative Luong Attention to identify temporal dependencies and correlations. Our objective is to predict the national charging load by considering the charging state and the number of plug-in EVs connected to various charging stations. Using real-world EV charging data from three Chinese cities, we demonstrate that the LA-RCNN model significantly enhances forecast accuracy compared to benchmark methods, reducing MAPE by 21.33% and RMSE by 18.73% as compared to LSTM models. These results highlight the importance of nonlinear attention-based architectures and diverse contextual data sources for effective EV load prediction.
