The work presented in this paper describes a multi-issue negotiation protocol between active consumers and a management platform in order to establish load coordination in a highly congested network. The multi-issue negotiation protocol considers simultaneously the consumption interval, the price, and the size of the energy packages, which is the main contribution of this work. Regarding the implementation methodology, the proposed algorithms have been implemented using MATLAB classes that allow emulating the behaviour of a multi-agent system in which each vehicle is an agent that interacts with the platform, which is another agent. In the present work, and without loss of generality, the algorithm is applied to coordinate the charging of electric vehicles (EVs) in a distribution network in which building loads represent critical loads. The algorithm is tested in a realistic environment, and its stability and performance are evaluated. Furthermore, the description of the algorithm is provided in a generic form, and it could be applied to any other scenario. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
