“…We refer the reader to a recent survey by Amjad et al [7] on various optimization approaches and objectives employed for EV charging. Our goal is most closely related to peak shaving, however the above-mentioned work on that is very different from ours in that it either does not consider discharging [5], or does not incentivize the EV owners [4].…”

We propose a novel way to use Electric Vehicles (EVs) as dynamic mobile energy storage with the goal to support grid balancing during peak load times. EVs seeking parking in a busy/expensive inner city area, can get free parking with a valet company in exchange for being utilized for grid support. The valet company would have an agreement with the local utility company to receive varying rewards for discharging EVs at designated times and locations of need (say, where power lines are congested). Given vehicle availabilities, the valet company would compute an optimal schedule of which vehicle to utilize where and when so as to maximize rewards collected. Our contributions are a detailed description of this new concept along with supporting theory to bring it to fruition. On the theory side, we provide new hardness results, as well as efficient algorithms with provable performance guarantees that we also test empirically.

“…This bi-directional technology allows EVs to be used both as loads and as distributed energy sources [18][19][20]. However, the viability of V2G requires major infrastructure upgrades to the grid, which are currently difficult to achieve [21]. Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) is an alternative technology to V2G that requires more major infrastructure upgrades to the grid to implement [22,23].…”

In order to improve the air pollution problem in northern China in winter, coal-to-electricity (CtE) projects are being vigorously implemented. Although the CtE project has a positive effect on alleviating air pollution and accelerating clean energy development, the economic benefits of electric heating are currently poor. In this study, a system based on vehicle-to-home (V2H) and photovoltaic power generation that can effectively improve the benefits of CtE projects is proposed. First, a V2H-based village microgrid is proposed. The winter temperature and direct radiation of the Beijing CtE project area are analyzed. Extreme operating conditions and typical operating conditions are constructed for potential analysis. After that, a bi-layer optimization model for energy management considering travel characteristics is proposed. The upper layer is a village-level microgrid energy-dispatching model considering meeting the heating load demand, and the lower layer is a multi-vehicle energy distribution model considering the battery degradation. The results show that the distribution grid expansion capacity of the electric heating system based on V2H and PV generation is reduced by 45.9%, and the residents’ electricity bills are reduced by 68.5%. The consumption of PV can be completed. This study has effectively increased the benefits of electric heating in northern China during winter. This helps the CtE project to be further promoted without leading to large subsidies from the government and the State Grid.
