This thesis examines the modeling of the electricity market in Crete, particularly in the context of high penetration of electric vehicles. Specifically, this study attempts to redefine the limits of electrification on the island by making use of real data on driver behaviour such as parking and charging times, as well as the ability of electric vehicles to return energy to the grid via V2G technology. In addition, data on Crete’s generation plants and the island’s renewable energy sources are incorporated to balance load and reduce energy costs. The model was developed using MATLAB software that takes into account the impact of electric vehicles on energy supply in combination with conventional power plants and renewable energy sources.
