Analysis of the electric vehicle charging station's layout in Beijing based on improved traveling simulation model

With the popularity of electric vehicles, some enterprises have manufactured many electric and hybrid electric vehicles. The construction of charging stations becomes more urgent. More and more papers studied the rationality of charging station's layout by simulation models. This paper improved the travelling simulation model of electric vehicles based on the following points: road network and population density, which make the traveling simulation model closer to reality. We researched the situation of charging stations in Beijing and used a heuristic method to simulate visiting frequency of charging stations and roads. Finally, we put forward reasonable proposals for the construction of charging stations in Beijing.
