A simulation approach to determine the deployment of an urban network of electric vehicle charging stations for environmental and social benefits
Welcome to the SANEVEC Project site (A simulation approach to determine the deployment of an urban network of electric vehicle charging stations for environmental and social benefits), TED2021-130825B-I00.
SANEVEC Project has been funded by the State Research Agency (AEI), from the Ministry of Science and Innovation of Spain, with NextGenerationEU funds from the European Union, within the call for Strategic Projects Oriented to the Ecological Transition and the Digital Transition 2021.
BUDGET: € 281,750
Start and end dates: 12/01/2022 – > 11/30/2024
ENTITY AND CENTER: University of Seville, Research Institute of Computer Engineering (I3US)
Objectives of SANEVEC:
To research, design and implement a computer simulation model to predict the effects of the layout of an urban network of electric vehicle charging stations on the following aspects of a real city:
- Traffic congestion.
- Air-quality.
- Carbon footprint.
- Electric grid usage.
SANEVEC aims to build a complete simulation tool, starting from the preliminary simulator SIMTRAVEL, which has been previously implemented, which allowed us to validate the concept idea over a synthetic test city: https://github.com/amarogs/simtravel
Our vision is to create a powerful and flexible analysis tool that will be made available to municipalities, governments, companies, research groups and universities.
