A Two-Step Method of Optimal Planning for Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Location

Abstract

As a promising transport in the future, electric vehicles plays an important role in people's lives and energy conservation. Planning of electric vehicle charging stations has a far-reaching significance for the popularity of electric vehicles. In this paper, we discuss the siting problem of electric vehicle charging station and propose a two-step method of optimization method. Firstly, we establish a charging station location model, then use Voronoi diagram to determine the preliminary zone, finally we get this problem optimally solved by immune algorithm.The example verifies feasibility of this model.

Analysis of Transformer Overload Problem with EV Charging Load

“…The development of electric vehicle industry is an important measure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the dependence on fossil fuels. As the electric vehicle technology advancing, especially the development of battery technology, and some support of more and more countries in terms of corresponding policy, the electric vehicles have been the rapid developed in the past ten years [1].…”
