Abstract: A device includes a processor configured to execute one or more instructions stored in a memory to receive an electrical vehicle (EV) location profile having information regarding movement of an EV between a first and a second charging location of an electrical network. The processor is also configured to apply an EV mobility model to the EV location profile to determine an optimized schedule for the EV to charge or discharge a storage cell of the EV at the first or second charging locations during a scheduling period. The EV mobility model comprises constraints that describe interactions of the EV with the electrical network.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention can provide systems and methods for combining analytical and combinatorial processes to compute fault restoration of a dead load area. According to one embodiment of the invention, a system can be provided. The system can be operable to receive location and switch information associated with an area of a power grid that has lost power, identify a switch within an area of the power grid that has lost power, compute an alternative source capacity (ASC) value for the identified switch, identify and open at least one second switch, compute combinations of the switch with each second switch that satisfies a rule, eliminate redundant switch open or close operations prior to the computation of the dead load area restoration plan, and compute a restoration plan based at least in part on the computed combinations.
