A national network of DC Fast Charging infrastructure (DCFC) corridors can facilitate connectivity and long-distance travel using battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Optimal locations such facilities are where BEV drivers have easy access to charging will not make any deviation from their pre-planned trips. Such optimally located corridor DCFCs usually in remote, underserved communities immediately next a highway they lack the advantages shared utility an urban setting. Therefore, we find that...
A network of reliable corridor charging stations is essential to building driver confidence in long-distance battery electric vehicle trips. Here, we propose a detailed methodology measure station reliability based on infrastructure data. By assigning events unique visits, our can capture holistic overview the driver’s experience. We use real world data collected between 2019 and 2022 from 54 Direct Current Fast Chargers (DCFCs) 36 across California demonstrate that overarching framework...
