Abstract
Electric vehicles (EVs) have attracted considerable attention because of their clean and high-energy efficiency. Reasonably planning a charging station network has become a vital issue for the popularization of EVs. Current research on optimizing charging station networks focuses on the role of stations in a local scope. However, spatial features between charging stations are not considered. This paper proposes a charging station selection method based on the graph convolutional network (GCN) and establishes a charging station selection method considering traffic information and investment cost. The method uses the GCN to extract charging stations. The charging demand of each candidate station is calculated through the traffic flow information to optimize the location of charging stations. Finally, the cost of the charging station network is evaluated. A case study on charging station selection shows that the method can solve the EV charging station location problem.
