To achieve an effective integration of the electric vehicle in the grid, not only technical issues must be solved, but also a new regulatory context and business models must be proposed. This paper proposes two electric ...

Deployment of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in electrical networks is full of controversies. Advantages of DER have been largely addressed in the literature. Original reasons for centralized paradigm and the problems ...

The smart city is a sustainable and efficient urban center that provides high quality of life to its inhabitants with an optimal management of its resources, where clean and cost effective energy generation is a key issue. ...

Distributed generation (DG) represents an important resource to address relevant energy issues, such as reliability and sustainability, in the current and future smart cities. It is expected that distributed generation ...

The smart city seeks a highly interconnected, monitored and globally optimized environment to profit from the synergies among systems such as energy, transports or waste management. From an energy perspective, transport ...

Operation of distributed energy resources is taking importance nowadays. This paper proposes an optimal planning and operation model of distributed energy resources in a district taking into account the mobility of consumers ...

This paper proposes a linear programming problem to find the optimal planning and operation of aggregated distributed energy resources (DER), managed by an aggregator that participates in the day-ahead wholesale electricity ...

The electrification of the transportation sector is likely to contribute reducing the global dependency on oil and is expected to drive investments to renewable and intermittent energy sources, by taking advantage of it ...
