Optimal Fast Charging Station Location for Public Electric Transportation in Smart Power Distribution Network

Abstract

Electric vehicle (EV) become increasingly active in public transportation system. The battery and the charging system to keep it running are essential. For tech-economic benefits on the installation of the charging station, the location design is an important part. Include management to make it appropriate for the radial distribution system. This article presents an analysis to determine the optimal charging station for the radial distribution system. By simulating the charging station according to IEEE 33 bus standards. The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm is used to find the location of the best charging station for use with the radial distribution system. The results show that the proposed method finds the optimal charging station for EV. It can reduce the cost of creating additional locations including a suitable supply of the electrical system and it can also be applied to transportation systems within the city or between cities.
