Abstract
Recently, a great deal of research has been conducted on the optimal location and size of electric vehicle charging stations to help build a charging infrastructure that can address one of the biggest challenges of the environmental transition: mobility. In studying the problem of the optimal location and size of electric vehicle charging stations, three main perspectives can be taken: that of the charging station owners, that of the electric vehicle users, and that of the electricity distribution network, each with specific objectives. This thesis aims to describe a three-step procedure addressing the location and sizing problem, taking into account the perspectives of the various stakeholders. Eventually this procedure will be applied to the practical case of the Brussels-Capital Region. The first step consists in the probabilistic evaluation of candidate sites based on qualitative criteria. The second step approximates the optimal solution through a heuristic. Thereafter, the mathematical optimization problem is defined and solved for exact solutions with different parameter. Finally, results of the various steps are compared, conclusions and future areas of improvement are identified.
