چکیده

We study how the electric vehicles (EVs) of today would perform in meeting the driving needs of vehicle owners, and propose an optimization model to find locations for charging stations needed to support EV usage. We take publicly available data from travel surveys that are person oriented and construct vehicle centric datasets. Chicago and Seattle metropolitan areas are selected as showcases for implementation. The statistical analysis of the datasets for these cities shows that a large majority of the vehicles travel less than the average range of EVs available in the marketplace. Since the distance traveled is not the only factor affecting EV range, we develop a user charging model that determines where and how to charge an EV given all the trips that the vehicle is supposed to make and the availability of the charging infrastructure. The vehicles that fail to complete all their trips are used as an input to an optimization model that yields optimal charging station locations. We present optimization results based on the Chicago and Seattle data.

Scheduling of Electric Vehicle Charging Station for profit maximization of Vehicles and Station in Uncertainty

Abstract: In this paper, the electric vehicle (EV) charging station scheduling process is designed to maximize the profit of EVs owners and the station operator in two steps. First, a complete model is proposed to formulate the problem of charging and discharging EVs at charging stations in one-day-ahead 24-hours. The purpose of the program is to increase the profits of EVs owners charging stat...

Energy cost minimization in an electric vehicle solar charging station via dynamic programming

Environmental crisis and shortage of fossil fuels make Electric Vehicles (EVs) alternatives for conventional vehicles. With growing numbers of EVs, the coordinated charging is necessary to prevent problems such as large peaks and power losses for grid and to minimize charging costs of EVs for EV owners. Therefore, this paper proposes an optimal charging schedule based on Dynamic Programming (DP...
