Abstract

Integrating electric vehicles (EVs) into the coupled power distribution network (PDN) and transportation network (TN) presents substantial challenges. This paper explores three key areas in EV integration: charging/discharging scheduling, charging navigation, and charging station planning. First, the paper discusses the features and importance of EV integrated traffic–power networks. Then, it examines key factors influencing EV strategy, such as user behavior, charging preferences, and battery performance. Next, the study establishes an EV charging and discharging model, with particular emphasis on the complexities introduced by factors such as pricing mechanisms and integration approaches. Furthermore, the charging navigation model and the role of real-time traffic information are discussed. Additionally, the paper highlights the importance of multi-type charging stations and the impact of uncertainty on charging station planning. The paper concludes by identifying significant challenges and potential opportunities for EV integration. Future research should focus on enhancing coupled network modeling, refining user behavior models, developing incentive pricing mechanisms, and advancing autonomous driving and automated charging technologies. Such efforts will be essential for achieving a sustainable and efficient EV ecosystem.
