Planning Plug-in Electrical Vehicles Charging Infrastructure in City Centers

摘要: Installing charging facilities in existing parking lots city centers is considered an effective measure to encourage the adoption of plug-in electric vehicles (PEV). This paper concerned with problem optimally locating these minimize total system cost. The formulated as a fixed charge facility location model capacity constraints. extends work by allowing unserved demands and considering drivers' tendency stick familiar lots. Accordingly, inconvenience costs are introduced for those who have change their purpose charging. proposed not only always feasible, but also introduces pricing mechanism so that level service (measured cost demands) can be traded off infrastructure In addition, stochastic version developed address effects uncertain PEV market penetration rate on design facilities. A case study conducted analyze sensitivity models different components, compare results deterministic models.
