Effects of EV-parking lots on transmission lines congestion and price in the electricity market

Nowadays, the use of distributed energy resources (DERs) is increase to supply loads in power system. EV-parking lots are one of these resources that presence of them in the system can have an influential impact on improvement of operation conditions and electricity price in the market. In this paper, an algorithm is proposed for participation of EV-parking lot in the market and selection of optimal parking. Results show that the presence of EV-parking lots in the electricity market can reduce the market total cost and the congestion costs.
