Charging/discharging scheduling of Electrical Vehicles considering uncertainty of PV generations in Smart Homes

Utilization of electric vehicles, especially Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles with capability of power injection to the electrical system at the critical times, is one of the transportation system´s solutions for diminishing the environmental pollutions. However, charging of these vehicles by electric power which is produced by traditional plants, not only increases the pollutions production and greenhouse gases emission, but also causes the system´s power loss growth. On the other hand, presence of electric vehicles in future developed houses known as Smart Homes is an inevitable fact. Being independent from the network in supplying their required electric power, is the aim of these houses. Then using of renewable energy resources can be an appropriate option to achieve this goal. Uncertainty of these resources in power generation is one of the main problems in system´s scheduling. In this paper, by adding one of these resources to smart home and by considering its generation´s uncertainty, charging /discharging scheduling of existing electric vehicles, by paying attention to the constraints of homes consumption and vehicle´s batteries, has been carried out.
