Miriam Stumpe: Planning Electric Bus Systems through Simultaneous Optimization of Charging Infrastructure and Vehicle Schedules

Description

Given the global efforts to reduce emissionsand fossil fuel dependency, public transport operators are undergrowing pressure not only to replace their diesel buses withelectric buses, but also to provide a supporting charginginfrastructure. However, the transition from traditionalfuel-based bus transport to electric bus systems is still in itsearly stages in most cities due to the uncertain technologicalenvironment. As a result, it is necessary to solve twointertwined planning problems – the long-term charging locationplanning and the operational electric vehicle scheduling – toidentify charging infrastructure which remains feasible andsufficiently low-cost when environmental factors vary.
