The large scale penetration of electric vehicles (EVs) will introduce technical challenges to the distribution grid, but also carries the potential for vehicle-to-grid services. Namely, if available in large enough numbers, EVs can be used as a distributed energy resource (DER) and their presence can influence optimal DER investment and scheduling decisions in microgrids. In this work, a novel EV...
Fully EVs (electric vehicles) and PHEVs (plug-in hybrid electric vehicles) have attracted much attention in recent years. Towards an increasing share of EVs, their economic feasibility and impact on the electricity distribution have been studied in detail. However, little has been achieved in investigating the impact on the electricity generation systems. This paper presents a MILP (mixed-integer...
The Spanish economy faces two key issues. The first of these is the significant reliance on non-renewable energy, which reached 76.4% and was 22 points over the European Union average. Secondly, the threat that the fee deficit poses to the sustainability of the National Grid. This fact is forcing the Spanish Government to implement measures focused on tax increases. However, these decisions have done...
The abundance of natural gas in the United States because of the number of existing natural gas reserves and the recent advances in extracting unconventional reserves has been one of the main drivers for low natural gas prices. A question arises of what is the optimal use of natural gas as a transportation fuel. Is it more efficient to use natural gas in a stationary power application to generate...
Energy-environmental planning for transportation sector requires extensive data for energy carriers types, production, and consumption as well as vehicle technologies. However, in developing countries, where private transportation sector is growing at an enormous rate and energy-environmental planning is needed the most, the required relevant data are usually limited or unavailable. The objective...
