Using activity-based modeling to predict spatial and temporal electrical vehicle power demand in Flanders

Electric power demand for household generated traffic is estimated as a function of time and space for the region of Flanders. An activity-based model is used to predict traffic demand. Electric vehicle (EV) type and charger characteristics are determined on the basis of car ownership and by assuming that EV categories market shares will be similar to the current ones for internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEV) published in government statistics. Charging opportunities at home and work locations are derived from the predicted schedules and by estimating the possibility to charge at work. Simu... Mehr ...
