Abstract: To solve the voltage stability problem of electric vehicles connected to the distribution network in the limit state, a reactive power compensation strategy based on the holomorphic embedding method and electrical distance is proposed. Firstly, the load model of the electric vehicle charging station is constructed, and the limit of the charging power of the electric vehicle connected to a certain bus is obtained. Then, the power flow embedding equation of the power system is constructed by the holomorphic embedding method, and the analytical expression of the voltage rational function is introduced based on the Padé approximation algorithm. The voltage collapse point is solved by the distribution of zeros and poles of the rational function. Then, a method of reactive power and voltage control partition based on electrical distance is proposed. According to the principle of weak regional coupling and strong interval coupling, the power system is divided into several regions by spectral clustering and a k-means clustering algorithm. The order of the voltage stability margin value s is obtained by connecting the limit charging power to each bus of the power system. In this paper, the reactive power compensation strategy proposes to add reactive power compensation devices to the buses with the weakest voltage stability margin in different zones. Finally, compared with other reactive power compensation strategies 1 and 2, the reactive power compensation strategy provided in this paper is increased by 1.626121813 and 1.160494345 times, respectively. The superiority of this method is verified by simulation.
