Optimal Operation of EV for the Purpose of Load Leveling Using Car Sharing Model

In recent years, various studies using electric vehicles have been conducted against the background of environmental problems and the spread of electric vehicles. The models in these studies are diverse, and have different goals. There are various problems such as minimizing the delivery cost of electric vehicles in the car sharing model and minimizing the cost of electric power when purchasing electric power to charge the electric vehicle. Therefore, in this study, we consider the optimal operation of electric vehicles for the purpose of leveling the load of electric power to multiple houses in the car sharing model. Then, the comparison is made with the case where EV is not used, and output results are analyzed. In addition, load leveling can be achieved with this model, and it has become possible to obtain the amount of power actually required.
