In this paper, a multi-objective power dispatching problem that uses Plug-in Electric Vehicle (PEV) as storage units is considered. The problem involves several PEVs and a microgrid community, composed of small houses, residential areas, and different Renewable Energy Resources. Three different objectives are considered: microgrid total costs; usage of PEV batteries and maximum grid peak load. In order to find sets of non-dominated solutions, a matheuristic black box solves several Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) subproblems. We improve a previously developed MILP model and design a new multi-objective matheuristic including new problem initialization mechanisms.
