Distributed renewable energy systems are now widely installed in many buildings, transforming the buildings into electricity prosumers. Existing studies have developed some advanced building side controls that enable renewable energy sharing and that aim to optimise building-cluster-level performance via regulating the energy storage charging/ discharging. However, the flexible demand shifting ability of electric vehicles is not considered in these building side controls. For instance, the electric vehicle charging will usually start once they are plugged into charging stations. But, in such charging period the renewable generation may be insufficient to cover the EV charging load, leading to grid electricity imports. Consequently, the building-cluster-level performance is not optimised. Therefore, this study proposes a coordinated control of building prosumers for improving the cluster-level performance, by making use of energy sharing and storage capability of electricity batteries in both buildings and EVs. An EV charging/discharging model is first developed. Then, based on the predicted future 24h electricity demand and renewable generation data, the coordinated control first considers the whole building cluster as one integrated building and optimises its operation as well as the EV charging/discharging using genetic algorithm. Next, the operation of individual buildings in the future 24h is coordinated using nonlinear programming. For validation, the developed control has been tested on a real building cluster in Ludvika, Sweden. The study results show that the developed control can increase the cluster-level daily renewable self-consumption rate by 19% and meanwhile reduce the daily electricity bills by 36% compared with the conventional controls.

Real-time vehicle dispatching operations in traditional car-sharing systems is an already computationally challenging scheduling problem. Electrification only exacerbates the computational difficulties as charge level constraints come into play. To o
vercome this complexity, we employ an online minimum drift plus penalty (MDPP) approach for SAEV systems that (i) does not require a priori knowledge of customer arrival rates to the different parts of the system (i.e. it is practical from a real-world deployment perspective), (ii) ensures the stability of customer waiting times, (iii) ensures that the deviation of dispatch costs from a desirable dispatch cost can be controlled, and (iv) has a computational time-complexity that allows for real-time implementation. Using an agent-based simulator developed for SAEV systems, we test the MDPP approach under two scenarios with real-world calibrated demand and charger distributions: 1) a low-demand scenario with long trips, and 2) a high-demand scenario with short trips. The comparisons with other algorithms under both scenarios show that the proposed online MDPP outperforms all other algorithms in terms of both reduced customer waiting times and vehicle dispatching costs.
The paper considers the problem of controlling Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) traveling through a three-entry roundabout so as to jointly minimize both the travel time and the energy consumption while providing speed-dependent safety guarant
ees, as well as satisfying velocity and acceleration constraints. We first design a systematic approach to dynamically determine the safety constraints and derive the unconstrained optimal control solution. A joint optimal control and barrier function (OCBF) method is then applied to efficiently obtain a controller that optimally track the unconstrained optimal solution while guaranteeing all the constraints. Simulation experiments are performed to compare the optimal controller to a baseline of human-driven vehicles showing effectiveness under symmetric and asymmetric roundabout configurations, balanced and imbalanced traffic rates and different sequencing rules for CAVs.
Building energy management is one of the core problems in modern power grids to reduce energy consumption while ensuring occupants comfort. However, the building energy management system (BEMS) is now facing more challenges and uncertainties with the
increasing penetration of renewables and complicated interactions between humans and buildings. Classical model predictive control (MPC) has shown its capacity to reduce building energy consumption, but it suffers from labor-intensive modelling and complex on-line control optimization. Recently, with the growing accessibility to the building control and automation data, data-driven solutions have attracted more research interest. This paper presents a compact review of the recent advances in data-driven MPC and reinforcement learning based control methods for BEMS. The main challenges in these approaches and insights on the selection of a control method are discussed.
Electric vehicles (EVs) are an eco-friendly alternative to vehicles with internal combustion engines. Despite their environmental benefits, the massive electricity demand imposed by the anticipated proliferation of EVs could jeopardize the secure and
economic operation of the power grid. Hence, proper strategies for charging coordination will be indispensable to the future power grid. Coordinated EV charging schemes can be implemented as centralized, decentralized, and hierarchical systems, with the last two, referred to as distributed charging control systems. This paper reviews the recent literature of distributed charging control schemes, where the computations are distributed across multiple EVs and/or aggregators. First, we categorize optimization problems for EV charging in terms of operational aspects and cost aspects. Then under each category, we provide a comprehensive discussion on algorithms for distributed EV charge scheduling, considering the perspectives of the grid operator, the aggregator, and the EV user. We also discuss how certain algorithms proposed in the literature cope with various uncertainties inherent to distributed EV charging control problems. Finally, we outline several research directions that require further attention.
We give the definition of s-Vector control by using the complex power vector in the p-q plane to quantify the feasible operational region of battery energy storage system (BESS) and to find the optimal power set-point solution. The s-Vector control f
eatures in the avoidance of using costly optimization solvers to solve optimization models online which is also an execution time bottleneck in real-time control. The advantages of s-Vector control are fast and stable computational efficiency. We validate a s-Vector based real-time controller of BESS to provide frequency response and voltage support as ancillary services for the power grid. The objective is to maximize the utility of the BESS asset. We formulate the dynamic capability curve of the DC-AC converter and the security requirements of the battery cells as constrains of the control system. The initial power set-points are obtained based on the traditional droop control approach. Based on s-Vector control, a fast optimization solution algorithm is proposed to find the optimal power set-point and guarantee the security. According to the experimental validation in our 720 kVA / 560 kWh BESS on EPFL campus, we achieve 100 ms of refreshing the real-time control loop. As a benchmark, using optimization solver requires 200 ms to update the real-time control loop.
