Planning Model for Electric Vehicle Charging Station Considering Battery Capacity

To support the orderly growth of the electric car sector, proper planning of electric vehicle charging stations is critical. In this study, an optimization model of electric car charging station design is constructed using the minimal yearly cost as the object function, taking the restrictions of charging capacity and investment into account. To guarantee that the planning outputs are more consistent with the EV constraint, the battery capacity constraint considering EV's own factors is utilized to replace the service radius limitation. The case study demonstrates that the technique provided in this work is both practical and scientific, and that it can be used to plan electric car charging stations.

I. Introduction

The present development paradigm is unsustainable in light of economic growth and the rising tension between energy supply and environmental damage. As a result, the social economic model must transform to one of high efficiency and low emissions. In light of this, the worldwide power industry'S study and debate of microgrids, EVs, and other topics has been a hot subject in recent years [1]–[2]. The development of the whole EV sector depends on the building of EV charging stations, which is a key aspect of the EV facility construction.
