Influence of Optimal Charging Station Integration on Electric Power Distribution Grid: Case of Electric Bus-Based Transport System

Electric mobility is one of the main pillars of the global energy transition towards a more sustainable and environmentally responsible model. Greenhouse gas emissions could be drastically reduced with electric mobility massification. Public transport systems represent the first step of this massifi...

description Electric mobility is one of the main pillars of the global energy transition towards a more sustainable and environmentally responsible model. Greenhouse gas emissions could be drastically reduced with electric mobility massification. Public transport systems represent the first step of this massification due to government policies, but these electromobility projects should optimize their resources to be cost-effective. Furthermore, the implementation of charging stations could cause negative impacts on electrical distribution networks, which should be evaluated beforehand for the adequate planning of power grids. A methodology was developed and implemented herein for the technical and economic evaluation of electric bus-based transport systems.
