Abstract:

This article provides a demand side management for the efficient adoption of electric vehicles in utility grid. The proposed framework includes two separate areas: the technological activities of the distribution network and the nature of the energy markets. All the players involved in all these procedures are described in detail, as well as their operations. In addition, multiple simulations are provided to demonstrate the possible impacts/benefits coming from the integration of the network of electric vehicles with the distribution network under the referred system, comprising steady-state and complex analysis of behaviour. This paper finds the opportunities to integrate the electric vehicle and power system sectors for the demand side management with the help of fuzzy logic approach.
