Abstract
Sustainable travel modes are considered as one of the main directions for moving towards more sustainable living in urban areas. The technology advancements of electric vehicles (EVs) have been receiving growing attention on global market. Still, the support of public authorities in pushing towards sustainable mobility paradigms and designing solutions for the deployment of charging infrastructures is needed.
There are several papers in the literature that have dealt with the estimation of EVs charging demand, both on macro and micro level, the placement of EVs charging facilities and management of real-time operations of EVs. In this context, we propose a novel optimization model for the efficient placement of EVs charging stations by considering the influence of existing points of interest (such as restaurants, supermarkets, touristic places, schools, hospitals, etc.) and service radius of potential EVs facilities. Generally, the coverage of a charging point, expressed in terms of average time or distance to reach a charging station, is correlated with the willingness-to-use of EVs drivers. Also, the presence of a particular category of points of interest, within the predefined service radius, shows the attractiveness of charging location. The proposed model has been applied to a real network of the Lombardy region. Preliminary results are encouraging and push towards further developments.
