Abstract

In this paper, unit commitment and the scheduling problem of plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) under the condition of power grid feedback are jointly considered, formulating a many objective problem. The objectives involve economic and environmental impact, carbon emission as well as the user satisfaction. To solve this multi-objective problem, an improved MOEA/D algorithm is proposed where levy flight is integrated to improve the algorithm performance. The improved MOEA/D algorithm, NSGA-II algorithm and the traditional MOEA/D algorithm are compared. The experimental results show that the improved MOEA/D algorithm is comprehensive optimal in the multi-objective function, which shows the effectiveness of the improved algorithm. Moreover, the four objectives are comprehensively considered to balance the multiple factors in the application.
