Reducing Range Anxiety by Unifying Networks of Charging Stations
Advanced Informatics School, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
Availability of charging infrastructure is an important factor in penetration of electric vehicles into daily transportation system. Several factors in electric vehicle industry have caused range anxiety including insufficient charging stations, limited range of electric vehicles, long charging time, inaccurate estimation of available range, and energy consumption of auxiliary in-vehicle devices. However less attention has been paid to universality in charging station networks. This paper reviews the solutions to range anxiety. With regards to availability of charging station as one of the solutions, accessibility of charging stations by electric vehicle owners is also represented as another cause of range anxiety and a possible solution is provided.
