Charge Planning Tool for Heavy-Duty Electric Vehicle Fleets
conference paper
Driven by zero-emission targets, fleet owners in the Heavy-Duty transport sector are transitioning towards Electric Vehicles (EVs). However, existing Fleet Management Software (FMS), designed for conventional vehicles, needs to incorporate the planning of charging moments of EVs. The study proposes a Charge Planning Tool (CPT) that can be integrated with existing FMS. The CPT optimizes a charging schedule for a non-homogeneous EV fleet with multiple charging opportunities, less chargers than vehicles, while considering compatibility between chargers and vehicles, and grid related constraints. Additionally, the charging schedule minimizes several components related to the charging operation costs.
