Smart management of energy consumption in urban transportation using Homer

Among the serious problems that the world is facing today, environmental pollution and lack of energyresources follow the increasing demand and use of energy by human societies. In the past few years,electric vehicles have attracted attention due to their ability to reduce emissions. However, the electrictransportation industry, especially electric railway systems and electric car charging stations, are amongthe major consumers of energy for the distribution grid due to the coincidence of the peak loadconsumption of these systems with the peak electricity demand of the grid. The development of a smartmanagement system for electric vehicle charging demand can be considered a basic solution in facingthis challenge and to better adapt to the comprehensive use of electric vehicles. Significant return energyfrom train braking and solar energy sources can also be effective solutions to solve the above problem.It is possible to use energies such as the energy from the sun's radiation and the return energy of trainbrakes as sources of distributed generations, energy storages, and also manage electric vehicle chargingstations to reduce the share of the grid. The distribution helped in supplying power to the electrictransportation system. Therefore, to manage energy consumption and reduce the adverse effects of theelectric transportation system on the distribution grid, the optimal energy consumption model of anelectric transportation system consisting of electric railway system and electric vehicle charging stationsalong with energy storage and distributed generations, It has been presented and simulated in the Homersoftware environment and the results have been compared with the traditional system.
