Dynamic Operating Envelope-Based Local Energy Market for Prosumers With Electric Vehicles

This paper presents a new framework for the management of prosumers with electric vehicles (EVs) and photovoltaic (PV) systems in a local energy market (LEM) using the dynamic operating envelope (DOE) that secures the network operation for prosumers’ trading and allows prosumers to manage EVs charge/discharge with PV systems. Prosumers can configure the charge/discharge status of their EVs depending on mobility and determine their net import/export power which will be used to establish DOEs. The proposed framework incorporates a bidding strategy to enable prosumers to participate in the LEM within DOE limits, and peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading is developed to offer economic benefits to prosumers. The framework’s performance is evaluated with a 100% penetration level of EVs and PV systems on the IEEE 55-node low-voltage European test system. The simulation results demonstrate that DOEs can facilitate prosumers in managing their imports/exports for trading without violating voltage and congestion limits. The proposed framework efficiently manages EV charging/discharging with PV systems and enables prosumers to make optimal bids within DOEs, thereby benefiting from P2P trading in the LEM.
