Abstract: | YesHugo, a 2019 startup under Curious Inc., is an expert in fleet management software and trip registration. They provide information on the performance of the electric vehicle and the driver’s behavior. The lack of recommendations for drivers in selecting optimal charging stations results in them often suffering from range anxiety, then inefficient decisions are made when selecting charging stations. This research tests certain charging strategies aiming to minimize the cost of implementing charging stations into a route. The model in which the experiments are conducted takes into account various factors such as vehicle battery status, distance to charging stations, charging rates, and energy prices. Thus the main research question of this research is formulated as follows: What are the most cost-effective strategies for optimizing electric vehicle charging decisions, considering battery status, detour distances, charging rates, and energy prices? |
