Abstract
The objectives set for smart grids are as diverse as they are exciting and ambitious. Instead of overloads, bottlenecks and blackouts, smart grids will ensure the reliability, sustainability and efficiency of the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSEs). Therefore, EVSEs and Electric Vehicles (EVs) must integrate wireless communication between them to discover the availability and make pre-reservations of charging time slots. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-objective EV Charging Slots Assignment (CSA) optimization model that, besides balancing energy usage between EVSEs, minimizes the latency time of EVs. Moreover, we integrate our optimization model to a communication protocol between EVs and EVSEs that allows a reliable reservation process, called Reliable Broadcast for EV Charging Assignment (REBECA) [1]. Then, we propose a centralized heuristic to efficiently solve our model as an offline CSA process.
