  3. 12. Charging Cost Optimization of Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : MARKUS KNUTFELT; [2015]
    Keywords : charging cost optimization profiles dynamic programming electric vehicles;

    Abstract : The future success of chargeable vehicles will, among other factors, depend on their charging costs and their ability to charge with minimal disturbances to the national, local and household electrical grid. To be able to minimize costs and schedule charging sessions, there has to be knowledge of how the charging power varies with time. READ MORE

  4. 13. The Initial Deployment of Electric Vehicle Service Equipment : Case study: Green Highway Region, E14 from Sundsvall in Sweden to Trondheim in Norway

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Avdelningen för ekoteknik och hållbart byggande

    Author : Iran Daniali; [2015]
    Keywords : alternative fuel vehicle; charging infrastructure deployment; gasoline stations; Green Highway; Electric Vehicle Service Equipment;

    Abstract : Abstract Electric Vehicles (EVs) are considered a more sustainable alternative vehicle because of their efficient electric motor when compared to internal combustion engines (ICE), and thus help to mitigate environmental problems and reduce fossil fuel dependency. In or-der to support drivers of plug-in hybrid electrical vehicles (PEVs), the installation and adequate distribution of Electric Vehicle Service Equipment (EVSE) is a major factor. READ MORE
