Abstract

A promising approach for expedient market penetration of electric vehicles is a multi-station electric vehicle sharing system. Such a system, however, contains several problems, e. g., vehicles may concentrate at particular stations, deterring efficient operation of the system. The parameters that define system operation must be set at their optimal values for efficient operation. Genetic algorithms are used in this study along with a simulation model of the vehicle sharing system to optimize system operationand to examine ways to attain efficiency in system operation. It is founded from the results that the total number of parking slots needs to be twice as many as the number of vehicles and that adding a new station does not necessarily improve the efficiency of system operation.
