The paper proposes real case of application of a smart integration of Electrical Vehicles (EVs) charging stations with Dispersed Generation (DG) that can guarantee the maximum exploitation of the system and its sustainability. The case study is a real distribution grid of e-distribuzione, the main Italian Distribution System Operator (DSO). Different kinds of EVs charging systems and spread scenarios are hypothesized and different Optimal Power Flow (OPF) models, with different objective function, reflecting different needs of DSO, have been implemented and tested.

Renewable Energy Sources based (RES-based) Dispersed Generation (DG) and Electrical Vehicles (EVs) charging systems diffusion is in progress in many Countries around the word. They have huge effects on the distribution grids planning and operation, particularly on MV and LV distribution grids. Many studies on their impact on the power systems are ongoing, proposing different approaches of managing. The present work deals with a real application case of integration of EVs charging stations with ES-based DG.
