“…Several articles identified the potential for V2G to cost-effectively improve power quality [56], including specifically voltage support [57]. Other papers looked at using V2G to control peak power supply to both more actively manage load curves [58] as well as to avoid critical situations [59]. Only a few of the papers discussed the…”

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) refers to efforts to bi-directionally link the electric power system and the transportation system in ways that can improve the sustainability and security of both. A transition to V2G could enable vehicles to simultaneously improve the efficiency (and profitability) of electricity grids, reduce greenhouse gas emissions for transport, accommodate low-carbon sources of energy, and reap cost savings for owners, drivers, and other users. To understand the recent state of this field of research, here we conduct a systematic review of 197 peer-reviewed articles published on V2G from 2015 to early 2017. We find that the majority of V2G studies in that time period focus on technical aspects of V2G, notably renewable energy storage, batteries, or load balancing to minimize electricity costs, in some cases including environmental goals as constraints. A much lower proportion of studies focus on the importance of assessing environmental and climate attributes of a V2G transition, or on the role of consumer acceptance and knowledge of V2G systems. Further, there is need for exploratory work on natural resource use and externalities, discourses and narratives as well as social justice, gender, and urban resilience considerations. These research gaps need to be addressed if V2G is to achieve the societal transition its advocates seek.

“…A multi-objective meta-heuristic algorithm has been utilized in [13] to solve the DEP problem besides DG placement considering monetary costs and fault costs. Authors in [14], presented a NSGA-II based multi-objective method for distribution expansion planning problem in the presence of vehicle to grid and fault passage indicator. Minimization of total costs and maximization of reliability index were two conflicting objectives.…”

An A-Posteriori Multi-Objective Optimization Method for MILP-Based Distribution Expansion Planning

2020

Distribution expansion planning (DEP) is a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem and contains various options to be considered where the nonlinearity makes it difficult to solve. Over the years, different heuristic and classical optimization methods have been introduced to solve this problem. In a few classical optimization methods, this problem has been linearized. In this contribution, an-constraint based multi-objective method was proposed for mixed integer linear programming (MILP) based DEP model considering network loss. Operational network loss was linearized and incorporated in the model, then the operational loss cost was obtained by modeling the production cost. In order to model the production cost, the well-known supply price curve was considered, where the price of energy for each loading condition was obtained based on a linear model. Using the-constraint method, the Pareto optimal front was formed, which provides the decision maker with a range of solutions showing relationship among conflicting objectives. Then, a Fuzzy satisfying method was utilized to obtain the best compromised solution. Simulations were performed on an 18-node primary distribution network. Results showed the effectiveness of the proposed method for the MILP-based multi-objective DEP models.

“…Therefore, SOC of each group at the departure time from the GPL should be equal to the requested SOC of that group (13). Final SOC of a GPL can be calculated using (14). In order to maintain the PEV battery life, upper and lower bounds of SOC should be respected by the GPLO as expressed in (15).…”

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are considered as innovative solutions to achieve sustainable development. The installation of PEV parking lots is the main requirement for using PEVs. Another requirement is the expansion of the distribution system to meet a portfolio of demands with different attributes including parking lots. In this study, an innovative framework for integration of parking lots in distribution system planning (DSP) problem is presented. The storage capability of gridable parking lots (GPLs) is used to postpone investments in distribution system expansion. To this end, first, a novel stochastic GPL allocation model is proposed in which GPLs can act as charging stations and storage elements. Then, an integrated model for DSP problem is presented considering different objectives of distribution system company and GPL owners. Finally, an efficient linearisation lemma is applied to solve the proposed DSP model. The numerical studies demonstrate the proficiency of the proposed DSP model. av number of available vehicles in a GPL OF inv PL
