Abstract
Efficient unit commitment strategy in a modern workplace facilitated with electric vehicle (EV) chargers and energy storage systems requires implementation of optimal battery cycling for both local storage system and electric vehicle batteries. In order to achieve this goal, it is necessary to address the battery health in the energy management strategies of commercial buildings. A fair battery cycling approach that could consider the interests of both parties in a workplace (including the system operator and the EV owners) requires access to detailed information on battery performance and degradation-associated costs. In this study, a detailed investigation is carried out on the optimal battery cycling in a workplace that is facilitated with an EV charging station, energy storage system and renewable energy generation. This is carried out by employment of a tailored unit commitment model that can address the battery health for EVs, individually. This study illustrates how a business owner and the employees that own electric vehicles can benefit from bidirectional battery cycling in an equitable way without compromising their financial interests in the energy market.
