Joint distribution route optimization of fresh supplies by electric vehicles under charging and battery-swapping modes
Considering the constraints of customer-defined minimum freshness for fresh products, this study examines the joint distribution of charging-based and battery-swapping electric vehicles with the goal of minimizing total distribution costs. An optimization model for joint distribution route using ele...

| description | Considering the constraints of customer-defined minimum freshness for fresh products, this study examines the joint distribution of charging-based and battery-swapping electric vehicles with the goal of minimizing total distribution costs. An optimization model for joint distribution route using electric vehicles under the charging and battery-swapping modes is established. An ALNS is improved based on the characteristics of the model and the research problem. Comparative analysis shows that the proposed method in this study effectively reduces distribution costs and optimally plans routes. Experimental results indicate that, under the constraints of customer-defined minimum freshness for fresh products, joint distribution using both charging-based and battery-swapping electric vehicles results in lower distribution costs and better meets the needs of fresh product distribution companies. |
