Abstract

This paper investigates the potential impact of a fleet of electric vehicles charging on the cost of electricity generation, greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and power system demand through low voltage residential demand-side management (DSM). The proposed optimisation algorithm is used to shift electric vehicles charging loads to minimize the combined impact of three key parameters: Financial, environmental, and demand variability. The results show that it is effective to reshape the power demand and reduce electricity cost and GHG emissions without affecting people's driving patterns.
