Abstract:

Fossil energy is increasing depletion, renewable energy sources plays an important role in our life and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) is proved to be feasible. Electric Vehicles (EVs) can not only store energy, but also can be used as a medium between the battery energy stored in EVs and the power grid through Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G). And then, the energy in the batteries of electric vehicles can move with EVs. This paper introduces an energy distribution network, which is consisting of EVs, charge stations and renewable energy sources. After analyzing the characteristics of energy distribution network, we introduce a new commercial operation mode called mobile electrical grid, which is compared with the integrated grids. To calculate the life cycle energy loss for this novel operation mode, a mathematical model is developed, and then what we have deduced is demonstrated to be a lasso optimization problem with linear constraints, which is convex.
