Optimal number of charging station and pricing strategy for the electric vehicle with component commonality considering consumer range anxiety.

ABSTRACT: The battery driving mileage on a single charge and convenience of the charging stations affect Electric Vehicle's (EV) demand. This paper studies the optimal number of charging stations and EV's price strategy considering different component commonality configurations. Assume the EV manufacturer provides two types of EV and the two EVs have the same battery configuration (battery as a common part) or the same naked vehicle-EV without batteries (naked vehicle as a common part). And the common part could be configured with low or high quality. We discuss four scenarios with different common parts and different quality levels. For each scenario, we present the optimal number of the charging stations and EV prices. Then we compare the optimal solutions and manufacturer's profits in above four
