We consider a distribution grid used to charge electric vehicles such that voltage drops stay bounded. We model this as a class of resource-sharing networks, known as bandwidth-sharing networks in the communication network literature. We…
Recently, the volatility associated with marginal prices has increased due to large scale integration of renewable generation. Price volatility is undesirable from a consumer perspective. To address this issue, we present a framework for…
With the large-scale integration of electric vehicles (EVs) in the distribution grid, the unpredictable nature of EV charging introduces considerable uncertainties to the grid's real-time operations. This can exacerbate load fluctuations,…
A key assumption made in this paper is that electric vehicle (EV) battery charging profiles are rectangular. This requires a specific and new formulation of the charging problem, involving discrete action sets for the EVs in particular. The…
There is growing interest in the use of grid-level storage to smooth variations in supply that are likely to arise with increased use of wind and solar energy. Energy arbitrage, the process of buying, storing, and selling electricity to…
We study the traffic patterns as well as the charging patterns of a population of cost-minimizing EV owners traveling and charging within a transportation network equipped with fast charging stations (FCSs). Specifically, we study how the…
With the increase in adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs), proper utilization of the charging infrastructure is an emerging challenge for service providers. Overstaying of an EV after a charging event is a key contributor to low utilization.…
This paper proposes a two-stage optimization framework to evaluate whether cost-optimal electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure translates into effective operation under distribution grid constraints. The proposed approach explicitly…
