Summary
The proliferation of decentralized
multi-energy sources such as combined cooling, heat and power (CCHP), gas
boilers, and heat pumps significantly increases the linkages between
electricity, heat and gas distribution networks. In recent years, the
importance of multi-vector network interaction has been growing in research and
practical applications. These systems provide a higher level of flexibility to
the decision-makers. The aim of this special issue is to pursue first-class
research along this direction, focusing on the most recent investigations and
studies the mathematical modeling and design of multi-vector energy systems,
including developing deterministic and stochastic optimization methods,
sensitivity analysis, and evaluating the different elements and structures of
the multi-vector system on the optimization results.
Potential topics include but are not
limited to the following:
• Operation and planning of
multi-vector energy systems.
• Implementing novel mathematical
modeling for optimization of multi-vector energy systems.
• Developing strategies and
control systems for the efficient performance of multi-vector energy systems.
• Technical evaluation of
different structures and equipment of the system.
• Investigation on flexibility
sources (demand response programs, energy storage systems, etc.) on the
performance of multi-vector energy systems.

Abstract Electric vehicles (EVs) have received special consideration from modern society over the past several years. Although EVs are a fine example of environmentally friendly technology and have many advantages, they relatively increase the electricity demand upon a power grid as well. Therefore, their negative impact on busvoltage and line losses should be analyzed. In this study, the effect of EV loads and their penetration on bus voltage and line losses of an IEEE-33 bussystem has been examined via two scenarios. It is important to mention that the effect of EVs on the rate of air pollution, produced by fossil fuel…
