Developing an Efficient Dispatching Strategy to Support Commercial Fleet Electrification

Research Product Type
Research Report
The adoption of battery electric trucks (BETs) has the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions; however, challenges like shorter driving range and lower payload capacity necessitates a better understanding of energy-efficient dispatching of BET fleets. This project addresses that concern through developing an adaptive large neighborhood search algorithm that, through experimenting with a real-world case study, is shown to achieve significant energy consumption reduction.
