The increasing penetration of renewable generation requires new tools toachieve a high matching between demand and renewable generation at building andcommunity levels. Large commercial and public buildings with parking lots havea considerable potential to provide energy flexibility by controlling thecharging of Electric Vehicles (EVs) and injecting part of the stored energyinto the building, using Building-to-Vehicle (B2V) and Vehicle-to-Building(V2B) systems. However, EVs and buildings do not often belong to the sameentity and in Portugal the existing regulation does not allow financialtransactions between buildings and EVs as separate entities. Addressing thisregulation hurdle requires innovative optimization methods for theimplementation of B2V/V2B systems. Moreover, the new legislation regarding theself-consumption of renewable generation in Portugal enables the trade ofrenewable generation surplus between buildings and the establishment ofrenewable energy communities. This paper intends to address this issue andproposes a formulation to aggregate and manage the sharing of generationsurplus between buildings, using EVs as a flexibility resource. The simulationresults showcase the achieved increase in renewable self-consumption atbuilding and community levels, as well as the reduction in electricity costs.
