ABSTRACT
This paper proposes the allocation of charging stations of optimal capacity at appropriate locations within Kota city in Rajasthan state of India. The location of charging stations has been identified by considering various parameters including population density, family income, distribution network performance, number of electric vehicles and transformer capacity. The proposed approach of allocation of charging stations has been modeled mathematically and also by machine learning algorithms such as data mining, clustering with all the possible scenarios and constraints. In identifying suitable places for positioning charging stations in the city by observing different parameters and aspects, i.e. geo-statistical approaches, minimum traveling time and travel distance for charging stations has been included in the proposed approach. The proposed approach has been tested in MATLAB/Simulink environment.
