Optimal Management of Electric Vehicle Charging Loads for Enhanced Sustainability in Shared Residential Buildings

This study proposes an optimal demand management framework for EV charging in shared residential parking lots, considering limited charger availability, transformer capacity, and diverse driving behavior. Driver behavior and energy consumption are estimated, and a linear programming-based optimization model is used to efficiently allocate available power among EVs. A satisfaction index is introduced to assess EV community satisfaction, while performance is evaluated based on power usage, charger utilization, and user satisfaction. The framework supports efficient and sustainable EV integration in shared residential buildings.
