The electric vehicle battery charging schedules are calculated according to electricity prices and distribution network technical constraints. The design of the multi-agent system is described. The real-time operation of the multi-agent system was demonstrated in a test-bed of a laboratory micro-grid.8enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessjournal article10.1016/j.epsr.2014.01.014Active demandDistributed controlDistribution networksElectric vehicleMulti-agent systemsSmart gridsEnergy Engineering and Power TechnologyElectrical and Electronic Engineeringhttp://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?scp=84894225290&partnerID=8YFLogxK
