Set cover model-based optimum location of electric vehicle charging stations

Electric vehicle charging stations: Model, algorithm, simulation, location, and capacity planning

“… [ 34 ] CMC Total service time – ABS (MATsim) Public EVNC EVFC Daily journey The model showed a consistent relationship between estimated charging demand and actual energy consumption. [ 35 ] IP Demand coverage – – Public EVNC User behavior EV penetration rate gives the value of energy demand. [ 36 ] MIP Distance coverage – – Public EVNC Parking behaviors It is recommended to use the proposed coverage model in industrial zones, cities and microgrids.…”

“…In Ref. [ [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] , [30] , [31] , [32] , [33] , [34] , [35] , [36] , [37] ], the set covering location model and the maximal coverage location model are presented as pivotal methodologies in facility location optimization. The set covering model seeks to ascertain the minimal number of facilities required to comprehensively service an entire area without any limitations, whereas the maximal coverage model imposes constraints on the facility count to optimize service coverage.…”

“…Ref. [ 35 ] advances a methodology tailored for the optimization of charging station locations to accommodate mixed traffic flows. Additionally, ref.…”
