  4. Abstract:
  5. Isolated microgrids depend mainly on diesel generation and have polluting transportation. This is being addressed by the introduction of renewable energy resources and electric vehicles (EVs). Hence, this paper presents a novel long-term planning model for the introduction of EVs in isolated microgrids. This work studies the replacement of internal combustion vehicles with electric ones by analyzing their respective investment, maintenance and operation costs. Various case studies are discussed, considering different EV and solar photovoltaic (PV) penetration levels, and varying prices of diesel in the planning horizon. Results demonstrate that investing in EVs could significantly reduce net present costs. © 2019 IEEE
