    Abstract
    Remote controlled switches (RCSs) have the ability to isolate the faulted area from other parts of the distribution system. On the other hand, the dispatchable distributed generators (DDGs) and tie lines can supply the interrupted loads after fault occurrence trough microgrids and reduce the outage time. In this regard, this article proposes a planning model for simultaneous placement of RCSs, DDGs, and tie lines to improve distribution system reliability. The presence of renewable distributed generations (RDGs) and energy storage systems, which have an increasing penetration in today's distribution networks are also considered. Moreover, two different practical load shedding methods are...

    Abstract
    In this paper, a two-stage charging management framework is proposed to exploit the potential flexibility of Electric Vehicles (EVs). The aim is to reduce drastic variations in distribution system net load caused by integration of intermittent renewable distributed generation (DG) units. In the first stage, a home-based charging method is formulated in which the desired charging schedule of EVs is obtained by minimizing the cost of energy taking into account owners' preferences. The attained charging schedules are then announced to EVs Coordinator Agent (ECA) which, as the second stage, applies an LP optimization to reduce the cost of ramp provision. Moreover, an incentive scheme is...
