Planning and Management of Charging Facilities for Electric Vehicle Sharing
Electric vehicle (EV) sharing has experienced rapid development and has served as a flexible and environmental friendly means for urban transportation. However, charging an EV sharing fleet is still a challenge for business operators because of limited or costly access to charging facilities. In this chapter, we focus on how to charge a fleet to make EV sharing viable and profitable. Adopting the real data of car2go, we propose a queueing network model to characterize how customers endogenously pick EVs according to energy levels, as well as the implementation of a charging-up-to policy. In order to solve the proposed nonlinear optimization program, we develop mixed-integer second order cone programs as tractable lower- and upper-bound formulations. These models lead to practical insights related to charger resource availability and locations, EV charging policy, battery technological advancements, and urban spatial structure.
