I want to optimize the fleet and battery for electric shuttle buses in my campus with constraints and mixed fleets. Pls tell me the program or algorithm that suit for this condition.
Dear Kanticha,
in any case simulation! There are many simulation tools for energy storage optimization: DIgSILENT Power Factory or Simplorer or Portunus. Look please whichever tool has the best element-library for your problem.
Regard Christian
I recommend mixed-integer linear program (MILP). The characteristics of a EV bus is just its battery. You can use existing work in literature that model EVs as MILP models. If interested, you can look at my publications.
Your problem is well-suited for MILP.
What do you mean by LP or simulation ?
when you code the model in LP style, then you need to simulate it using a programming language .
Dear A.,
you be right, the difference between LP and simulation is not so far. But with a simulation-tool you can undergo the same model a DC or AC or transient analysis. In LP you need quite three different programs!
Regards Christian
