  With the progressive exhaustion of fossil energy and the enhanced awareness
of environmental protection, more attention is being paid to plug in hybrid
electric vehicles. Inappropriate siting and sizing of plug in hybrid electric
vehicles parking lots could have negative effects on the development of plug in
hybrid electric vehicles, the layout of the city traffic network, and the
convenience of plug in hybrid electric vehicles drivers as well as lead to an
increasing in the network losses and a degradation in voltage profiles at some
nodes. Given this background, this paper aims to allocate parking lots in
Industrial Micro-grids with the objective of minimizing system costs including
investment cost, power loss and scheduling cost as possible objectives. A
two-stage model has been designed for this purpose. The optimal siting and
sizing of parking lots in order to minimize the investment cost of parking lots
is performed in the first stage. At the second stage, the optimal plug in
hybrid electric vehicles scheduling problem is solved considering market
interactions to provide profit to the parking lots owner with taken into
account various network constraints. Conclusions are duly drawn with a
realistic example.
