Abstract:
The rapid growth of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) introduces new challenges in energy management and requires innovative solutions for enhancing local self-consumption. This paper introduces a Virtual Partitioning Algorithm (VPA) for the energy storage systems of EVs, aiming to improve EVs integration within RECs. The VPA improves the use of the available EV storage capacity to increase the economic benefits, and the shared energy of a REC equipped with residential photovoltaic systems or other renewable energy sources. The proposed approach is tested on a realistic case study involving a multi-family housing with a shared photovoltaic installation. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the VPA in increasing overall gains and increasing both self-consumption and environmental sustainability.
