dc.description.abstractAbstract This thesis addresses the increasingly critical issue of the availability and pricing of fast charging stations for electric vehicles. With the rise in electric vehicle usage, the demand for efficient and rapid charging solutions has become paramount. The study utilizes agent-based modeling techniques to simulate the behavior of electric vehicle charging systems under varying conditions of supply and demand. The aim is to provide a nuanced understanding of how different variables such as queuing times, station availability, charging speed, and pricing strategies impact user experience and profits. The simulation models queue formation and waiting times at fast charging stations, offering insights into potential bottlenecks. The research also evaluates the economic viability of various charging infrastructures and explores the balance between charging costs and accessibility. It is worth noting that this thesis only considers one type of electric vehicle and assumes a static electricity price. Key findings indicate that future electric vehicle drivers will have access to fast chargers with prices reflecting current levels. An increased number of chargers exponentially reduces waiting times and decreases the variability of waiting times. A linear increase in the number of chargers is necessary to meet the growing demand. Market research indicated that many drivers prioritize charging speed over lower prices. In comparison, fast-chargers with maximum 250 kW power economically outperform 150 kW fast-chargers, therefore 250 kW chargers are preferred on highways with consistent traffic. Besides, lowering prices during periods of low demand increase profits.
