Abstract
This paper incorporates plug in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) with thermal unit commitment problem. The integration of PHEV can significantly enhance the reliability of power system operation. When there is enough amount of renewable energy (solar and wind) on a particular day that can be stored through PHEV and whenever there is crisis of power during peak load the same power can be inject to grid through proper charging and discharging of PHEV. The unit commitment (UC) is a complex constrained problem of power system used for scheduling of power generating units. In this paper, modified differential evolution (MODE) is used to solve the PHEV integrated unit commitment problem. MODE has solved this complex dimension problem quickly and reliably using Gaussian mutation. PHEV owners receive power during off peak hours from the grid and they inject the unused power during peak load hours. The result of PHEV integrated unit commitment problem has tested on a power system containing 10 thermal generating units integrated with 43000 PHEV. The simulation results will show the effectiveness of MODE as an efficient optimization technique.
