Energetic and economic analysis of the electric vehicles charge impacts on public parking lots

Abstract

This work addresses the energy and economic impact of electric vehicle (EV) charging services in public car parks; related to the evolution of EV penetration in the Spanish car fleet in the next 5 years. All this in the framework of the transition towards green and smart mobility. A statistical methodology has been developed to plan the number of EV charge stations to deploy in public car parks, estimate their energy demand (in minute intervals), and finally calculate the monthly energy costs. Specifically, this methodology is used to analyse the evolution of operating costs; as well as the investment costs due to the EV charging services of a public car park located in a centric area of Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
