Desarrollo de una metodología para la ubicación de estaciones de carga de vehículos eléctricos, caso de estudio: ruta Cuenca–Guayaquil

Abstract

In this work, the authors present a methodology to identify the location of fast charging stations for electric vehicles at interprovincial and/or intercantonal routes, using a mathematical model of a vehicle‘s energy consumption and based on various criteria that each potential location must comply for its final selection. In chapter 2, there is a review about electric vehicles, types of battery technologies, charging modes and types of connectors, among other topics. Subsequently, chapter 3 develops the study of a "quasi-stationary backward" mathematical model to estimate the energy consumption of an electric vehicle based on the dynamic behavior of a moving car on a road’s surface. Chapter 4 shows the procedure used for data acquisition with a vehicle using geolocation equipment and the vehicle's on-board computer. In addition, a mathematical model implementation and its calibration are carried on Matlab, as well as the validation through three test routes. Chapter 5 presents the methodological process developed to obtain the location of the fast charging station on the Cuenca - Guayaquil route via Colectora Cuenca – Puerto Inca (E582), using the proposed mathematical model on chapter 4. Chapter 6 explains the behavior of the PNE Solution 50 kW fast charging station and its impact on the quality of electrical energy, taking as reference Regulation No. ARCONEL 005/18.
