A Travel Distance Power Consumption Model for Battery Electric Vehicles

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular in recent years. Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) are a type of EVs use stored energy more efficiently than typical internal combustion engine powered counterparts. A key challenge of BEV is the limited battery energy. In order to relieve electric vehicle range anxiety for BEV owners and achieve an optimal battery sizing for BEV, a travel distance power consumption model has been created to model the travel behavior of BEV in the fleet. The model provides an efficient way of estimating the power requirements of electric vehicles reach the destination.
