Abstract
As interest on the Smart Grid technology has recently increase, research and development of the electric vehicle (EV) as well as studies on the renewable energy, distributed generation and energy storage have been actively conducted. The EV is an entity to be able to buy and sell the electricity in the grid and play important roles to interact with various other entities based on the smart grid technology. In this paper, it is described why the aggregator is essential in Korean electricity environment and how it operates in the smart grid to buy and sell electricity on the behalf of EVs and negotiate electricity prices in the market.
