Abstract
This paper presents a design and measures the performance of a dynamic electricity trade scheduler employing genetic algorithms for the convenient application of vehicle-to-grid services. Arriving at and being plugged-in to a microgrid, each electric vehicle specifies its stay time and sales amount, while the scheduler, invoked before each time slot, creates a connection schedule considering the microgrid-side demand and available electricity from vehicles for the given scheduling window. For the application of genetic operations, each schedule is encoded to an integer-valued vector with the complementary definition of C-space, which orderly lists all combinatory allocation maps for a task. Then, each integer element indexes a map entry in its C-space. The performance measurement result, obtained from a prototype implementation, reveals that our scheduler can stably work even when the number of sellers exceeds 100 as well as improves demand meet ratio by up to 6.3% compared with the conventional scheduler for the given parameter set.
