Highway congestion is an increasingly pressing societal problem, both in terms of cost (manyproductive hours lost) and safety (highway congestion increases the risk of accidents). While thereis a plethora of research on detecting and predicting traffic flow state from floating car data fromdata generators …

The Netherlands is a frontrunner in the field of public charging infrastructure, having a high number of public charging stations per electric vehicle (EV) in the world. During the early years of adoption (2012-2015) a large percentage of the EV fleet were Plugin Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV)due to …

In the past 5 years Electric Car use has grown rapidly, almost doubling each year. To provide adequate charging infrastructure it is necessary to model the demand. In this paper we model the distribution of charging demand in the city of Amsterdam using a Cross-Nested Logit Model with socio-demographic …

Fast charging is usually seen as a means to facilitate long distance driving for electric vehicles and roll-out therefore often happens with corridors in mind. Due to limited charging speeds, EV drivers usually tend to charge at home or work when the car is parked for a longer period to avoid unnecessarily …

Recent studies show that charging stations are operated in an inefficient way. Due to the fact that electric vehicle (EV) drivers charge while they park, they tend to keep the charging station occupied while not charging. This prevents others from having access. This study is the first to investigate …

Voor de komende jaren wordt een toename in elektrisch vervoer voorzien. Naast lichte elektrische vrachtvoertuigen betreft het elektrische bestel- en vrachtwagens met een hoger laadvermogen. Het opladen van die elektrische voertuigen betekent een extra belasting voor de elektrische infrastructuur. Gebruikers …

From the introduction: In the Netherlands alone the potential of the circular economy for the economy is estimated at an annual cost saving effect of 7.3 billion Euros and job creation of 54,000 jobs (Bastein et al. 2013). However this potential needs to be used in applied solutions in often local settings …
