Decentralized Energy Storage System for EVs Charging and Discharging in Smart Cities Context

In this paper, we consider the Electric Vehicles (EVs) interaction with a decentralized energy storage system (DESS) located at the public supply station. To manage the EV charging and discharging process, we propose a scheduling algorithm aiming to maximize the EV drivers’ satisfaction and minimize the DESSs’ stress level. Simulation results using realistic scenarios are conducted to validate the proposed approach and demonstrate its efficiency and effectiveness while satisfying the defined constraints.
