Textbook in PDF format Optimization of Electric-Vehicle Charging explores several optimization models for the scheduling of electric vehicles in a smart grid. Both discrete-time and discrete-event approaches are considered to minimize tardiness, charging and production costs, on the basis of information like release time, due date, deadline, energy request, and availability of energy generated from renewable sources. Transportation demand is assessed, as well as user-equilibrium-based approaches, for the location of charging stations and for the assignment of users to multiple charging stations
