Abstract

Electric vehicle charging mode determines the efficiency of electric vehicle charging, there are three charging modes-slow charging mode, fast charging mode and battery replacement mode. Electric bus (e-bus) is widely used in battery replacement mode. However, it is lack of theoretical guidance for the optimal locations of charging facilities for e-bus in battery replacement mode. In this paper, given the regional charging demand and considering the battery replacement mode, a mathematical model has been developed. Particle swarm optimization algorithm is proposed for solving this model. A case study on planning the locations of e-bus charging stations in Nanjing, China is presented. The results suggest that model can be used to locate e-bus charging station in battery replacement mode and provide reference for the optimal locations of charging facilities for e-bus.
