The project

This project proposes a novel dynamic planning mechanism for allocating electric vehicle charging stations within distribution networks. By incorporating future traffic models, the project aims to identify the optimal location and size of EV charging infrastructure to meet the evolving needs of a growing electric vehicle fleet. The project aims to provide a future-proof design that accounts for projected traffic patterns and mobility trends in planning deployment. It also identifies ideal locations and capacities for infrastructure as well as a balanced amount and control algorithm of battery energy storage systems to compensate the EV charging demand, considering grid constraints and maximizing network efficiency.
