Optimal management of controllable loads in a microgrid presence renewable sources

Electric Vehicles (EVs) have made possible increase the penetration level of renewable sources in smart grids by mitigating their intermittency. Besides EVs, other controllable loads such as air conditioning and washing machine can be managed in smart grids to improve power system performance. In this paper, a method is proposed to optimize cost and energy losses considering power system and EV constraints in a smart grid framework. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) of EVs is used to as a storage for renewable energy. The modified IEEE 31-bus test system is used to test and evaluate the proposed methodology.
