Dimensioning electric charging posts for PEV

This paper represents a new analysis method for the estimation of the required charging infrastructure for the electric vehicles (EV´s). The study is based on a real metropolitan area, taking real data from transport habits, and a prediction of certain degree of penetration of EV´s. To cope with this analysis, is the application of powerful tools, used for example in telecommunication systems such as Markov chains, and applied here into EV´s necessities and charging stations infrastructures. This theory is applied in a real example to provide more insight on how can be applied in real circumstances.
