Abstract:Dongfang Zhao (ORCID ID 0000-0002-5424-9915); Xiaopeng (Shaw) Li (ORCID ID 0000-0002-5264-3775); Yu Zhang (ORCID ID 0000-0003-1202-626X) This project includes literature review and proposing a model for EV planning and operations. We first conducted a literature review on the relevant EV planning and operations. Then we propose a model that integrates both electric vehicle technologies and car sharing operations. Based on the simulation model, a dynamicand time-continuous optimization model seeking the optimal design of charging station location and electric vehicle deployment is developed. By discretizing the model, we proposed a Monte Carlo simulation model to evaluate the total system cost for a given location and vehicle deployment design. A heuristic algorithm is developed to solve the optimal system design of station location and vehicle deployment. A numerical test in Yantai city, China is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and draw managerial insights into how the key parameters affect the optimal system design.
