Optimal Energy Management of a Parking Lot in the Presence of Renewable Sources

Today, the production of greenhouse gases and pollution caused by fossil fuels has prompted governments to move more towards the use of distributed generations, renewable energies and electric vehicles in microgrids. Considering the importance of this issue, in this article, short-term plan for optimal consumption of power energy is proposed with the aim of reducing and stabilizing the supply of power energy in a smart power microgrid. The model presented in this article has fully modeled all the technical constraints of the microgrid including electric vehicles parking lot, renewable resources, local generation resources and demand response programs (DPRs). In this paper, the electric vehicles parking lot plays a role both as a load and as a source of energy generation in the network, which will reduce the costs related to the electric vehicles parking lot.
