Abstract :
The electrification of the light vehicle fleets would be a reality in the coming decades. It is being studied through pilot experiences and surveys, how this change in the technology would affect the users driving behaviour. Obviously, new challenges appear, for instance the battery charging, which would be certainly different to the current needs and timings for filling up the internal combustion engine vehicles tanks. Analysis of real electric vehicle usage data is a key point in the development of the electric mobility. A large collection of electric vehicles and charging points have been monitored during three years and the results about the driving and charging patterns are shown in this work. These results may help to develop future charging infrastructure location and to evaluate the electric vehicle integration into the grid.
