Abstract Selecting an appropriate contract price between electric vehicle aggregators and electric vehicle owners is an uncertain, multi-criteria decision-making issue. In addition, the results can cause strong conflict due to di erent aims: the optimal value for increasing electric vehicle aggregator (EVA) profit negatively a ects the cost for owners. The value of the contract price can change the optimal scheduling of EVAs in the day-ahead market. Taking into consideration this context, the current paper proposes to solve the multi-objective scheduling problem of an aggregator with a goal programming approach. The presented approach sets a satisfaction level for each goal according to decision-makers’ preference. Numerical results illustrate the validity of this approach to balance di erent performance measures. Furthermore, optimal scheduling of electric vehicle aggregators in the day-ahead market is created.
