- Abstract
- Electric vehicles have been the center of attention in recent years because they can be used to set up a bidirectional connection to the power grid. In such a scheme an aggregation of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) can be used to provide ancillary services for the power grid which is known as Vehicle to Grid (V2G) concept. Aggregation of these PHEVS can be parked in a parking lot which can be considered as a distributed generation unit. During off-peak hours, power grid provides electrical energy for charging the PHEVs in the parking lot and during peak hours the aggregation of PHEVs in the parking lot can give back some amount of their stored energy to the grid. In this paper, it is considered that the parking lot belongs to the Distribution Company (DisCo).The economic revenues and costs of constructing such a parking lot for a Distribution Company are modeled mathematically. Genetic algorithm is used to find the optimal number of the electric vehicles in the parking lot at each hour which can provide maximum benefit for the Distribution Company.
