Abstract

The infrastructure construction of charging facilities for electric vehicles (EVs) is one of the key factors influencing the development of electric vehicle industry. A reasonable location and capacity determination scheme is very crucial to this issue. In this study, a probability calculation model that fully analyses the charging behavior of the owners is proposed to predict the charging load of the planned land. Based on the results of electric vehicle load forecasting, a location model with the lowest users travel cost is established. The location of charging station is optimized by genetic algorithm to obtain the location and capacity library of charging station. Especially, the two‐way cost for both the owners and the operators is considered for the location and capacity decision, and the optimal scheme is selected from the location and capacity library as the final planning result. An example analysis shows that the proposed method is effective and feasible for the location and capacity determination of electric vehicles charging stations in cities. © 2021 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
