Simulation of the energy behavior of electric vehicles and environmental impacts

Abstract

This Doctoral Thesis deals with the energy behavior of electric vehicles during on-road use and explores their overall environmental impact. The investigation of Thesis objects initiates from the fact that electric vehicles have beneficial effects on the urban environment, as they relieve it due to non-direct emissions during operation. However, taking into account the primary emissions from electricity production and car manufacturing, there is the necessity to analyze the total environmental footprint of vehicles in their complete life cycle (Life Cycle Analysis - LCA). The Thesis focuses on the systematic evaluation of the effect of traffic conditions on the electric vehicles’ energy consumption. It studies the various road environments, focuses on conditions such as traffic congestion and free flow, but also approaches the relative effect of certain traffic measures. The first part of the Thesis includes a study of the energy consumption of battery electric vehicles and internal co ...
