Integrating renewable energy sources and electric vehicles in dynamic economic emission dispatch: an oppositional-based equilibrium optimizer approach

Abstract

ABSTRACT This article proposes a solution to the Dynamic Economic Emission Dispatch (DEED) problem, which incorporates wind, solar and plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) into the optimization challenge. The new model, called Wind-Solar-Plug in Electric Vehicle (WSPEV) DEED, utilizes an optimization technique called the Oppositional-based Equilibrium Optimizer (OEO) method with the Weibull and Beta distributions to model wind and solar resources. The charging and discharging patterns of PEVs are also considered in the model. The proposed approach is evaluated through several scenarios involving Renewable Energy Sources (RESs) and PEVs, and the simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model in achieving a sustainable and cost-effective power system. The WSPEV DEED model provides a valuable solution to the DEED problem, which is crucial for successfully integrating RESs and PEVs into the power system for a sustainable future.
