Abstract
The number of electric vehicles (EVs) has been gradually increasing over the last decades. In order to eliminate the concerns related to charging demand in power systems, the appropriate integration of EVs to the grid is of great importance. Electric vehicle parking lots (EVPLs) offer a crucial occasion to manage the charging process of EVs. Further, EVs are capable of either charging from the grid or supplying power to the grid due to the vehicle-to-grid (V2G) features. Through an agent, namely an aggregator, EVPLs can participate in the electricity market and a considerable amount of profit can be obtained in terms of EVPLs, EV owners, and aggregators by energy selling. However, EV owners may not be willing to participate in this structure due to the concerns related to their comforts. In this context, a model in which EVPLs can bid for energy selling to the grid through an aggregator is proposed in this study. Additionally, the comfort violation of EV owners is taken into account. In order to validate the effectiveness of the devised model, various case studies are also performed.
