The transition of transit fleets to alternative powertrains offers a potential pathway to reducing the cost of mobility. However, the limited range and long charging durations of battery electric buses (BEBs) introduce significant…
Transit agencies that operate battery-electric buses must carefully manage fast-charging infrastructure to extend daily bus range without degrading on-time performance. To support this need, we propose a mixed-integer linear programming…
The rapid adoption of electric buses by transit agencies around the world is leading to new challenges in the planning and operation of bus networks. In particular, the limited driving range of electric vehicles imposes operational…
The increasing electrification of human activities and the rapid integration of variable renewable energy sources strain the power grid. A solution to address the need for more grid storage is to use the battery of electric vehicles as a…
As many public transportation systems around the world transition to electric buses, the planning and operation of fleets can be improved via tailored decision-support tools. In this work, we study the impact of jointly locating charging…
The last few years have seen the massive deployment of electric buses in many existing transit networks. However, the planning and operation of an electric bus system differ from that of a bus system with conventional vehicles, and some key…
A significant challenge of adopting battery electric buses into fleets lies in scheduling the charging, which in turn is complicated by considerations such as timing constraints imposed by routes, long charging times, limited numbers of…
The "avoid - shift - improve" framework and the European Clean Vehicles Directive set the path for improving the efficiency and ultimately decarbonizing the transport sector. While electric buses have already been adopted in several cities,…
The rapid growth of urban populations and the increasing need for sustainable transportation solutions have prompted a shift towards electric buses in public transit systems. However, the effective management of mixed fleets consisting of…
The electrification of long-haul freight transport introduces several new challenges, such as the limited capacity and congestion at en-route charging infrastructure. To reduce waiting times during peak periods, this paper proposes a…
Operators who deploy large fleets of electric vehicles often face a challenging charge scheduling problem. Specifically, time-ineffective recharging operations limit the profitability of charging during service operations such that…
In this paper, we investigate the charging scheduling optimization problem for large electric truck fleets operating with dedicated charging infrastructure. A central coordinator jointly determines the charging sequence and power allocation…
This paper addresses the on-demand meeting-point-based feeder electric bus routing and charging scheduling problem under charging synchronization constraints. The problem considered exhibits the structure of the location routing problem,…
This paper studies the joint fleet sizing and charging system planning problem for a company operating a fleet of autonomous electric vehicles (AEVs) for passenger and goods transportation. Most of the relevant published papers focus on…
School bus transportation, the largest fleet size for public transportation in the US, plays a significant role in sustainability through transport decarbonization. Thus, effective planning of electric school bus routes and recharge…
The rise of battery-powered vehicles has led to many new technical and methodological hurdles. Among these, the efficient planning of an electric fleet to fulfill passenger transportation requests still represents a major challenge. This is…
We study the joint route assignment and charge scheduling problem of a transit system dispatcher operating a fleet of electric buses in order to maximize solar energy integration and reduce energy costs. Specifically, we consider a complex…
Electric Vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly prevalent nowadays, with studies highlighting their potential as mobile energy storage systems to provide grid support. Realising this potential requires effective charging coordination,…
