Book Synopsis Network-wide Charging Infrastructure Planning and Market Share Analysis for Electric Vehicles by : Mohammadreza Kavianipour
Download or read book Network-wide Charging Infrastructure Planning and Market Share Analysis for Electric Vehicles written by Mohammadreza Kavianipour and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric vehicles (EVs) are widely considered a sustainable substitution to conventional vehicles to mitigate fossil fuel dependence and reduce tail-pipe emissions. However, limited ranges, long charging times, and lack of charging infrastructure have hindered EV's market acceptance. This calls for more investments in building charging stations and advancing battery and charging technologies to obviate issues associated with EVs and increase their market share and improve sustainability. This study introduces modeling frameworks to optimize fast-charging infrastructure locations at the network level to address the challenges associated with EVs. Furthermore, it investigates the required charging investments for the current and future EV market shares, technology advancements, and seasonal demand variations. First, this study seeks an optimal configuration for plug-in electric vehicle charging infrastructure that supports their long-distance intercity trips at the network level. A mathematical optimization model is proposed which minimizes the total system cost and considers the range anxiety, multiple refueling, maximum capacity, charging delay, and detour time. This study considers the impacts of charging station locations on the traffic assignment problem with a mixed fleet of electric and conventional vehicles considering a user equilibrium framework. This study fills existing gaps in the literature by capturing realistic patterns of travel demand and considering flow-dependent charging delays at charging stations in intercity networks. Then, the study focuses on Michigan and its future needs to support the intercity trips of EVs across the state in two target years of 2020 and 2030, considering monthly traffic demand and battery performance variations, as well as different battery sizes and charger technologies, the main contributing factors in defining the infrastructure needs of EV users, particularly in states with adverse weather conditions. This study incorporates the developed intercity model to suggest the optimal locations of EV fast chargers to be implemented in Michigan.Next, this study introduces an integrated framework for urban fast-charging infrastructure to address the range anxiety issue in urban networks. Unlike intercity trips that start with fully charged batteries, urban trips might start with any state of charge because of home/work chargers' unavailability, being part of a trip chain, and forgetting to charge overnight. A mesoscopic simulation tool is incorporated to generate trip trajectories, and a state-of-the-art tool is developed to simulate charging behavior based on various trip attributes for these trajectories. The resulting temporal charging demand is the key element in finding the optimum charging infrastructure. The solution quality and significant superiority in the computational efficiency of the decomposition approach are confirmed in comparison with the implicit enumeration approach. Finally, this study generates forecasting models to estimate the number of chargers and charging stations to support the EV charging demand for urban areas. These models provide macro-level estimates of the required infrastructure investment in urban areas, which can be easily implemented by policy-makers and city planners. This study incorporates data obtained from applying a disaggregate optimization-based charger placement model, for multiple case studies to generate the required data to calibrate the macro-level models, in the state of Michigan.

Book Synopsis Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels by : National Research Council
Download or read book Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-04-14 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a century, almost all light-duty vehicles (LDVs) have been powered by internal combustion engines operating on petroleum fuels. Energy security concerns about petroleum imports and the effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions on global climate are driving interest in alternatives. Transitions to Alternative Vehicles and Fuels assesses the potential for reducing petroleum consumption and GHG emissions by 80 percent across the U.S. LDV fleet by 2050, relative to 2005. This report examines the current capability and estimated future performance and costs for each vehicle type and non-petroleum-based fuel technology as options that could significantly contribute to these goals. By analyzing scenarios that combine various fuel and vehicle pathways, the report also identifies barriers to implementation of these technologies and suggests policies to achieve the desired reductions. Several scenarios are promising, but strong, and effective policies such as research and development, subsidies, energy taxes, or regulations will be necessary to overcome barriers, such as cost and consumer choice.

Book Synopsis Sustainable Interdependent Networks II by : M. Hadi Amini
Download or read book Sustainable Interdependent Networks II written by M. Hadi Amini and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book paves the way for researchers working on the sustainable interdependent networks spread over the fields of computer science, electrical engineering, and smart infrastructures. It provides the readers with a comprehensive insight to understand an in-depth big picture of smart cities as a thorough example of interdependent large-scale networks in both theory and application aspects. The contributors specify the importance and position of the interdependent networks in the context of developing the sustainable smart cities and provide a comprehensive investigation of recently developed optimization methods for large-scale networks. There has been an emerging concern regarding the optimal operation of power and transportation networks. In the second volume of Sustainable Interdependent Networks book, we focus on the interdependencies of these two networks, optimization methods to deal with the computational complexity of them, and their role in future smart cities. We further investigate other networks, such as communication networks, that indirectly affect the operation of power and transportation networks. Our reliance on these networks as global platforms for sustainable development has led to the need for developing novel means to deal with arising issues. The considerable scale of such networks, due to the large number of buses in smart power grids and the increasing number of electric vehicles in transportation networks, brings a large variety of computational complexity and optimization challenges. Although the independent optimization of these networks lead to locally optimum operation points, there is an exigent need to move towards obtaining the globally-optimum operation point of such networks while satisfying the constraints of each network properly. The book is suitable for senior undergraduate students, graduate students interested in research in multidisciplinary areas related to future sustainable networks, and the researchers working in the related areas. It also covers the application of interdependent networks which makes it a perfect source of study for audience out of academia to obtain a general insight of interdependent networks.
Book Synopsis Optimal Allocation of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Cities and Regions by :
Download or read book Optimal Allocation of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Cities and Regions written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A geospatial analysis of electric-vehicle charging infrastructure allocation within a city and a region, based on open source GIS tools, is described. A methodology was developed to provide optimal locations of electric vehicle infrastructure (charging stations) within a spatially extended region. Two different cases were identified: placement in a city network (urban road network) and in a regional or national network (rural roads and highways). For a city and a regional network, the methodology identifies high-potential areas for the installation of charging station. In contrast, for a highway network the methodology provides explicitly the suggested locations: the charging stations should preferably be placed in already built areas, gas stations or rest areas, to minimize additional investment costs. A pilot study was made for the city of Bolzano/Bozen (city road network) and the province of Alto Adige/Südtirol (rural and highway network). The municipality and the province gave positive feedback on the suggested locations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fast charging is perceived by users as a preferential way for electric vehicles (EV) to extend average daily mobility. Fast chargers rated power, their expected operation mostly during peak hours and clustering in designated stations, raise significant concerns. On one hand it raises concerns about power quality standard requirements, especially harmonic distortion due to the use of power electronics connecting to high loads typically ranging from 18-24 kWh, and on the other hand infrastructure dimensioning and design for those investing in such facilities. We performed four sets of measurements during an EV complete fast charging cycles and analysed individual harmonic's amplitude and phase angles behaviour and calculated the voltage and current total harmonic distortion (THD) and Total Demand Distortion (TDD) comparing it with IEEE519, IEC 61000/EN50160 standards.^Additionally, we simulated, two vehicles being fast charged while connected to the same feeder, and analysed how the harmonic phase angles would relate. We concluded that the use of TDD was a better indicator than THD since the first one uses the maximum current (IL) and the latter uses the fundamental current, sometimes misleading conclusions, hence suggested to be included in IEC/EN standard updates. Voltage THD and TDD for the analysed charger, were within the standards limitations 1.2% and 12% respectively, however individual harmonics (11th and 13th ) failed to comply with the 5.5% limit in IEEE 519 (5% and 3% respectively in IEC61000). Phase angles tended to have preferential range differences from the fundamental. We found that the average difference between the same harmonic order phase angles, are lower than 90°, meaning that when more than one vehicle is connected to the same feeder the amplitudes will tend to add.^Since the limits are dependable on the upstream short circuit current (ISC), if the number of vehicles increase (i.e. IL), the standard limits will decrease and eventually are broken. The harmonic limitation is hence a first binding condition, well before the power limitation is. The number of chargers will be limited first not by the power capacity of the upstream power circuit but by the harmonic limits for electric pollution.
