Abstract—Electric vehicle (EV) is an important solution for the traffic and environment problems in cities. However, to plan and build the energy supply and service network is always a challenging work all over the world. This paper is based on the planning of a real charge-swap service network for the electric vehicle in Hangzhou city, China. First, this paper defined the service radius for a network and developed the technical evaluation model; second, the economic evaluation model is proposed based mainly on the investment analysis considering the operating cost and earnings of the network. A case study is presented to show the application of the proposed evaluation method for a real charge-swap service network with a three-hierarchy structure.
Index Terms—Electric vehicles, planning, technical evaluation, economic evaluation.
