A novel approach for the unit commitment with vehicle-to-grid

The electrical vehicles (EV) with vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capability can be used as loads, energy sources and energy storage in MicroGrid integrated with renewable energy sources. The output power of generators will be reallocated in the considering of V2G. An intelligent unit commitment (UC) with V2G for cost optimization is presented in this paper. A new constraint of UC with V2G is considered to satisfy daily use of EVs. A hybrid optimization algorithm combined Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) with Lagrange Multipliers Method (LMM) is proposed. The difference between results of UC with V2G and UC without V2G is presented.
