The objective of this article is to propose a framework for defining a day-ahead prediction-of-use tariff (POU) that promotes aggregators of the plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) to operate as closely as possible to an ...

Diante das constantes mudanças nas regulamentações do setor elétrico, há necessidade de se realizar análises de impactos dessas regulamentações nos setores envolvidos, como consumidores e distribuidoras de energia elétrica.O ...

Time-of-Use tariffs (ToUT) can help to reduce peak demand by changing consumers’ behaviour. There is a growing interest in finding those characteristics that make households respond well to ToUT. Previous studies have ...

With the growing concern for energy conservation and environmental protection around the world, the use of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is being encouraged. In this way, the optimum allocation of EVs' parked in a distribution ...

We performed a techno-economic analysis of behind-the-meter photovoltaics (PV) coupled with lithium-ion battery storage under a flat rate and a time-of-use (TOU) rate for commercial buildings using HOMER Grid software. ...
