EFRE joint project E-Mobility-LAB Hesse

The project aims to develop a diversified and intelligent charging infrastructure system for electric vehicles to ensure the operational charging of a vehicle fleet characterized by a very high density of the latest generation of electric vehicles. This makes it possible to map a mobility situation that will exist in 2035. This is likely to be unique in Germany and Hesse. Interactions between a diversified charging infrastructure, advanced electric vehicles and intelligent charging management can thus be recorded, analyzed and optimized in practice at an early stage. The scientific support through the modeling of mobility and charging behavior, the execution of simulation studies and energy-economic studies on the effects of the charging infrastructure in an energy-economic system of the future should contribute to the derivation of recommendations for the rollout of electric mobility in Hesse.

An overview of the project can be found in the flyer.

Main areas of work of the Department of Vehicle Systems and Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering in the project:

Based on the findings and data profiles from the real-world laboratory, an agent-based simulation environment will be set up to describe the charging behavior under various mobility and charging infrastructure expansion scenarios. Simulation studies will be used to show the limits of the availability of charging infrastructure depending on the expansion scenarios for electromobility and recommendations for action for a resource-saving expansion by embedding it in smart grid concepts.

The main objective is to link all these sub-aspects in order to derive recommendations for the rollout of electric mobility in Hesse.
