Challenges such as dynamic and concentrated charging loads necessitate intelligent demand-side management (DSM) strategies to ensure grid stability and cost efficiency. This study proposes a novel two-stage framework integrating Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (HDBSCAN) and linear programming (LP) to optimize EV charging loads across four operational scenarios: Summer Weekday, Summer Weekend, Winter Weekday, and Winter Weekend. Utilizing a dataset of 72,856 real-world charging sessions, the first stage employs HDBSCAN to segment charging behaviors into nine distinct clusters (Davies-Bouldin score: 0.355, noise fraction: 1.62%), capturing temporal, seasonal, and behavioral variability. The second stage applies linear programming optimization to redistribute loads under real-time pricing (RTP), minimizing operational costs and peak demand while adhering to grid constraints. Results demonstrate the load optimization by total peak reductions of 321.87–555.15 kWh (23.10–25.41%) and cost savings of $27.35–$50.71 (2.87–5.31%), with load factors improving by 14.29–17.14%. The framework’s scalability and adaptability make it a robust solution for smart grid integration, offering precise load management and economic benefits. |
