Abstract

Electric vehicle aggregator (EVAGG) is an independent entity that facilitates exchanging electricity between electric vehicles (EVs) and the grid. Energy hub (EH) is another independent entity playing a remarkable role in enhancing the efficiency, flexibility, and reliability of multi-energy systems. Although interacting between various agents is beneficial to enhance their capability, it is challenging to schedule such interconnected entities. In this paper, EVAGG and EH, as independent entities, are scheduled independently and only exchange the information of electrical energy. The EVAGG scheduling is a function of EV owners’ driving patterns, including EVs’ arrival and departure times and the initial state of charge. Besides, both the EVAGG and EH operations are affected by the uncertainty of the locational marginal prices. Hence, this paper proposes a hybrid decentralized robust optimization-stochastic programming (DRO-SP) model based on the alternating direction method of multipliers to coordinate the management of entities. Stochastic programming is used to model the uncertainties of the EVs patterns, while the uncertainties of the locational marginal prices are modeled via robust optimization to grasp the worst-case realization. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid DRO-SP in terms of economic scheduling the entities while guaranteeing information privacy between entities.
