Electrified shared mobility services need to handle charging infrastructure planning and manage their daily operations minimize total operation time cost. However, existing studies tend address these problems separately. A new online vehicle-charging assignment model is proposed integrated into the fast location problem for dynamic ridesharing using electric vehicles. The latter formulated as a...

<p><em>Abstract</em>—The increase in electrical energy is increasing along with the needs of rapidly developing technology. However electricity technology also produces negative impacts such as air and noise pollution caused by power plants. Electrical generation still mostly generated from fossil fuels. A solution that can overcome this problem to switch more environmentally ...

Exploiting Renewable energy to the maximum extent possible in an electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) is key supporting anticipated carbon reduction from vehicles (EVs). Knowing expected load and solar advance at EVCS can be crucial framing a proper management strategy. Selection of suitable parameters associated with participating EVs are vital utilizing them for predicting probable EV giv...

Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) is a widely used open communication protocol between a charging station and its managing network system. The central promising idea of the OCPP is that it is an open standard, which provides a standardized communication language with the flexibility of giving charging station owners right to switch network providers at their own will. This paper investigates th...

One of the most critical barriers to widespread adoption of electric cars is the lack of charging station infrastructure. Although it is expected that a sufficient number of charging stations will be constructed eventually, due to various practical reasons they may have to be introduced gradually over time. In this paper, we formulate a multi-period optimization model based on a flow-refueling ...

Due to the environmental impact of fossil fuels and high variability in their prices, there is rising interest in adopting electric vehicles (EVs) by both individuals and governments. Despite the advances in vehicle efficiency and battery capacity, a key hurdle is the inherent interdependence between EV adoption and charging station deployment–EV adoption (and hence, charging demand) increases ...

The portable fuel-cell powered battery charging station provides a good solution to recharging batteries in field applications. This paper presents the design and testing of control strategies for this system using the Virtual Test Bed (VTB). The VTB provides a unique environment to model interdisciplinary components, to rapidly prototype the control system, and to simulate complex systems. In ...
