Equipment Optimization Method of Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Station Based on Queuing Theory

Abstract

As an important infrastructure of electric vehicles (EVs), EV fast charging station is of great significance in the popularization and development of EVs. Through the analysis of the characteristics of EV’s arriving time and charging duration in fast charging station, the stochastic service system was introduced and the queuing system model based on queuing theory was established. By calculating the indexes of the queuing system model, the desire model was used to optimize the number of EV chargers, which could save customers’ waiting time and reduce the investment of charging station. Finally, an example was simulated and calculated with MATLAB used as a simulation tool to verify the effectiveness of this approach.
