Car electrification is necessary to reduce Green-house Gasses(GHGs). Italy is behind the European Union average by both vehicle and charging infrastructure spread. The infrastructure planning needs to keep up with the expected growth of Electric Vehicles (EVs). This paper proposes a model based on Monte Carlo simulation of user charging behavior. The model tries to solve the dimensioning problem from the perspective of the policymaker in a high-demand scenario. It allows the assessment of the minimum number of charging ports for a specific service level. The case study of Al Milan-Bologna, an important highway section in Italy is shown.

Abstract
Car electrification is necessary to reduce Green-house Gasses(GHGs). Italy is behind the European Union average by both vehicle and charging infrastructure spread. The infrastructure planning needs to keep up with the expected growth of Electric Vehicles (EVs). This paper proposes a model based on Monte Carlo simulation of user charging behavior. The model tries to solve the dimensioning problem from the perspective of the policymaker in a high-demand scenario. It allows the assessment of the minimum number of charging ports for a specific service level. The case study of Al Milan-Bologna, an important highway section in Italy is shown.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
