Abstract

With the rapid development of electric vehicle (EV) technology under the background of double carbon, a reasonable evaluation of the network planning of EV charging stations is conducive to the long-term stable development of the EV industry. Therefore, this paper proposes a comprehensive evaluation system and method for EV charging networks under the traffic network and power grid coupling. First, an EV travel model is developed based on the travel probability matrix to analyze the spatial and temporal characteristics of EVs. Secondly, the coupling relationship among users, charging network, road network, and the power grid is analyzed, four criteria of user feedback, charging network operation, road network operation impact, and power grid operation impact are proposed, and corresponding evaluation indexes are constructed under each criterion to form a comprehensive evaluation index system. Furthermore, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and entropy weighting method are used to assign weights to the index layer and the criterion layer respectively, and the improved TOPSIS evaluation method is used to quantitatively analyze the impact of charging networks on different subjects for comprehensive evaluation. Finally, through the comprehensive evaluation of different charging network planning schemes, the effectiveness of the comprehensive evaluation method and model proposed in this paper is verified, which can provide a reference basis for the planning and improvement of EV charging station networks.
