In recent years, the consumer structure of China's passenger vehicle market is undergoing profound changes. Electric vehicles, favored for their low carbon footprint and cost-effective charging advantages, have seen their share in new car sales exceed 30%, with the charging and swapping market experiencing rapid growth. Against the backdrop of swift expansion in electric vehicles and their charging infrastructure, large-scale charging facilities clusters have the potential to become novel flexible resources for grid regulation. How to regulate the charging and discharging power of a large number of electric vehicles and guide the spatial and temporal distribution of charging and discharging demand through pricing has become a pressing issue. This dissertation, from the perspective of electric vehicle charging and swapping operators, systematically studies the following aspects concerning power control and price guidance as regulatory measures: (1) For the flexibility assessment of large-scale charging facilities' power regulation, a unified modeling approach using the Aggregate Cumulative Energy and Power Boundary Model is applied to assess the charging and swapping stations' discharge and charge power flexibility. Specifically, for battery swapping stations, a flexibility assessment method considering reserves is proposed. Considering the aggregated boundary model in daily decision-making involves coupling of energy states, an endpoint aggregated energy and power boundary model is constructed, and a dual-layer traversal method is further proposed to minimize flexibility loss. (2) Regarding the prediction of power regulation flexibility for large-scale charging infrastructure, a deterministic prediction method based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and a scenario prediction method based on Conditional Variational Autoencoders (CVAEs) are proposed. During the training process of CVAEs, a leave-one-out cross-validation with the 1-nearest neighbor classification model is used to evaluate the scenario generation performance and guide the adjustment of model hyperparameters. (3) For the issue of aggregate control of large-scale charging infrastructure, considering the operator's participation in both the day-ahead energy market and the real-time energy market, a risk-averse bidding strategy is proposed. After obtaining the cleared aggregate power from the day-ahead market, a real-time decomposition method for the aggregate power of charging and swapping facilities, considering foresight and redistribution, is proposed to achieve rapid and accurate regulation of charging and discharging power for large-scale facilities. (4) Regarding the issue of flexibility assessment and price guidance for spatial and temporal transfer of charging demand, the flexibility of spatial and temporal transfer of charging demand is assessed based on the Conditional Random Field (CRF) model. Aimed at public charging stations, a time-of-use and zone-specific charging price optimization strategy considering the flexibility of spatial and temporal transfer of charging demand is proposed to guide the reasonable transfer of charging demand in space and time.This dissertation validates the proposed models and algorithms based on actual charging and battery swapping record data from charging and swapping service operators. The work presented in this dissertation provides theoretical methods and effective tools for flexibility assessment and prediction, bidding decision-making, and charging and discharging power regulation for charging and swapping service operators to aggregate controllable charging and swapping resources for participation in the electricity market or providing auxiliary services. Moreover, the pricing strategy of public charging stations can guide the reasonable distribution of electric vehicle charging load in both time and space.
