For the upcoming new generation of electric power
systems, i.e. smart grids, one of the most important challenges
is to achieve an adequate economic and technical management
involving the different agents in the process.
In order to deliver the available power from suppliers to
consumers, a market-clearing mechanism is needed. At the same
time, technical operation calls for controlling that technical limits
are not reached to preserve the security of the system. In this
environment, Electric Vehicles (EVs) are gaining importance both
in economic and technical issues.
In this paper, an optimization-based approach is proposed for
clearing the market in a smart grid. The traditional participants
in energy markets are included in the formulation, stressing the
role of EVs aggregators. The results presented in this paper
illustrate the influence of EVs in the market-clearing procedure.
The benefits for the system and EVs aggregators are also studied
