With the development of smart distribution network and the proposal of dual carbon target, the importance of demand side management in improving the flexible operation of power system is becoming more and more prominent. In order to solve the problems of excessive load peak valley difference, insufficient utilization of demand side resources, and unreasonable pricing of aggregators, this paper propose an economic optimization scheme for aggregators based on electric vehicle three-stage dispatching. First, the loss aversion analysis is conducted on the willingness of electric vehicle users to participate in dispatching. The contract signing methods between aggregators and electric vehicles are divided into three categories: complete dispatching, rolling reward and punishment mechanism dispatching, and free dispatching. Next, the response model of electric vehicle users based on the improved cloud model is obtained. Then, the aggregators conduct three-phase optimal dispatching for electric vehicles according to the bid winning peak shaving capacity. Phase 1 according to the time of regional differences, the dispatching of reward power set rewards and punishment mechanism, phase 2 to determine the full freedom dispatching of electric vehicles, three kinds of dispatching and dynamic load capacity of electricity, phase 3 according to the phase 1 and 2, the amount of information and user loss aversion, the user response model of final rolling rewards and punishment mechanism, get the aggregators final pricing schemes, Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the feasibility of the proposed method.

With the proposal of the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, the number of electric vehicles is increasing day by day. Besides, the insufficient number of charging piles leads to the increase of the queuing time of electric vehicles, the pricing of aggregators and other issues becoming increasingly prominent. To solve the above problems, the aggregator pricing method of two-stage charging station allocation for electric vehicles is proposed. First, the contract signing mode between aggregators and electric vehicles is divided into three categories: complete dispatching, rolling reward and punishment mechanism dispatching, and free dispatching. Considering the impact of external factors on the energy consumption of electric vehicles, a road network model is established. Then, the improved A-star algorithm is used to solve the shortest path, in which the time factor is introduced into the evaluation function of A-star algorithm. At the same time, the evaluation function is improved according to traffic energy consumption, uninterrupted driving time, traffic light waiting time and other factors. The aggregator obtains the attraction of the charging station to the electric vehicle based on the charging and discharging demand of the electric vehicle and the Coulomb’s law, and then establishes the grid aggregator electric vehicle supply chain, and conducts reasonable pricing and charging station allocation in two stages. Finally, an example shows that this scheme can significantly improve the peak shaving efficiency, improve the profits of aggregators, and reduce the queuing time and traffic energy consumption of electric vehicles in terms of the distribution of electric vehicle charging stations and the pricing of aggregators.
