Congestion charging in Europe
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Congestion charging has been around for quite a while, since Singapore first introduced it in 1975. In the EU congestion is often located in and around urban areas and costs nearly 100 billion Euro, annually. The World Health Organization estimates 1.3 million deaths each year globally are related to air pollution, which to a large degree is caused by emissions from road traffic. Yet congestion charging did not boom the way bike sharing and car sharing did. However, in recent years there seems to be a revived interest in this much debated pricing scheme.

Plug-in Electric Vehicle Charging Congestion Analysis Using Taxi Travel Data in the Central Area of Beijing
Recharging a plug-in electric vehicle is more time-consuming than refueling an internal combustion engine vehicle. As a result, charging stations may face serious congestion problems during peak traffic hours in the near future with the rapid growth of plug-in electric vehicle population. Considering that drivers' time costs are usually expensive, charging congestion will be a dominant factor t...
متن کاملPrivacy-Sensitive Congestion Charging
National-scale congestion charging schemes are increasingly viewed as the most viable long-term strategy for controlling congestion and maintaining the viability of the road network. In this paper we challenge the widely held belief that enforceable and economically viable congestion charging schemes require drivers to give up their location privacy to the government. Instead we explore an alte...

Congestion Games for V2G-Enabled EV Charging
A model of the problem of charging and discharging electrical vehicles as a congestion game is presented. A generalization of congestion games – feedback congestion games (FCG) – is introduced. The charging of gridintegrated vehicles, which can also discharge energy back to the grid, is a natural FCG application. FCGs are proven to be exact potential games and therefore converge to a pure-strat...
