Urban charging station location model based on multi-objective programming

Abstract

As an efficient way to ease Range Anxiety, the rational location of charging stations is of great importance to promote the migration towards electric vehicles. In this paper, we mainly study urban charging station location problem and propose Urban Charging Station Planning Model whose goal is to minimize the construction costs of service facilities and minimize service costs while satisfying all the charging needs. Then we take Seoul as an example to detect our model and analyze the experimental results. Later, we use sensitivity analysis to expand the proposed model, trying to explore the impact of new technology such as battery capacity on the model and obtain some conclusions with a reference value. Finally, we directionally discuss the problem of charging station construction timeline, location problem between cities and the specific distribution within each region and these will be further completed in the future.
