- Abstract
- Because the owners of private vehicles use their vehicles in some hours in a day and their vehicles stay in parking lots without using in the rest of the day, the batteries of plug-in electric vehicles (PIEVs) can be considered as a source of energy storage. This paper takes the perspective of an aggregator that manages the participation of PIEVs fleet in the spinning reserve (SR) market and presents a mathematical model for optimal charging and discharging of the PIEVs, based on driving patterns of the fleet. The aggregator maximizes its profit in SR market subject to a number of technical and contractual constraints. The said problem is a nonlinear and mixed integer problem which is solved using simulated annealing (SA) algorithm.
