Charging Infrastructure for Electric Taxi Fleets

Electrification of commercial ride-hailing fleets and corporate fleets is on the rise. Charging infrastructure for electric taxi fleets is an area that requires special attention. As a significant charging demand will arise from electric taxis in future, research on suitable charging options for fleets is critical. Fleet charging is a complex riddle to solve as globally there is no consensus on charging technology or apt location of charging stations. This chapter provides a holistic overview of electric taxi operations with case studies focusing on charging infrastructure. It describes charging technologies for electric cars, standards, and trends in detail. This chapter also provides multicriteria decision-making tools for the selection of charging technology and sites for fleet charging.     «
