Abstract
This paper presents an optimization model for electric vehicle (EV) fleet charging under MIBEL (Iberian Electricity Market). The model integrates EV charging with day-ahead forecasting for grid energy prices, photovoltaic (PV) generation, and local power demand, combined with a battery energy storage system (BESS) to minimize total charging costs, reduce peak demand, and maximize renewable use. Simulations across Baseline, Certainty, and Uncertainty scenarios show that the proposed approach would reduce total charging costs by up to 49%, lower carbon emissions by 73.7%, and improve SOC compliance, while smoothing demand curves to mitigate excessive contracted power charges. The results demonstrate the economic and environmental benefits of predictive and adaptive EV charging strategies, highlighting opportunities for further enhancements through real-time adjustments and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration.

Abstract
We study the dynamics as well as the interaction of stable dissipative solitons (DSs) of the cubic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation which are stabilized only by nonlinear gradient (NLG) terms. First we review stationary, periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic solutions. Then we investigate sudden transitions to chaotic from periodic and vice versa as a function of one parameter, as well as different outcomes, for fixed parameters, when varying the initial condition. In addition, we present a quasi-analytic approach to evaluate the separation of nearby trajectories for the case of stationary DSs as well as for periodic DSs, both stabilized by nonlinear gradient terms. In a separate section collisions between different types of DSs are reviewed. First we present a concise review of collisions of DSs without NLG terms and then the results of collisions between stationary DSs stabilized by NLG terms are summarized focusing on the influence of the nonlinear gradient term associated with the Raman effect. We point out that both, meandering oscillatory bound states as well as bound states with large amplitude oscillations appear to be specific for coupled cubic complex Ginzburg-Landau equations with a stabilizing cubic nonlinear gradient term.

Abstract
Widespread fleet electrification is concentrating electricity demand at commercial depots that face volatile prices, tight feeder limits and scarce chargers. This paper proposes a forecast-aware mixed-integer linear program (MILP) that co-optimises vehicle charging, battery-energy-storage dispatch and photovoltaic self-consumption. The model minimises energy cost plus state-of-charge (SOC) penalties, while enforcing charger exclusivity, battery-health bounds and continuous priority weights. It is evaluated on a 48-interval weekday data set comprising 20 electric vehicles, two 11?kW chargers, half-hourly solar forecasts, factory-load predictions and Iberian day-ahead prices. Relative to an uncontrolled first-come/first-served baseline, the optimiser cuts total charging expenditure by 49?%, inceases SOC compliance from 35?% to 65?%, increases PV self-consumption from 33.4?% to 35.5?% and lowers grid-attributed CO2 emissions by 66?%. A modest rise in instantaneous demand is held within transformer limits through strategic battery discharge. These results confirm that predictive scheduling transforms depot charging from a passive load into a cost-optimal, carbon-aware asset and motivate future extensions that embed stochastic forecasts, vehicle-to-grid services. route-energy coupling and Keywords.
