Considering the traffic data-set available from mobility plans, a spatial and time model, representing the evolution of travel patterns, can be developed considering each vehicle as an agent. The following statistical analysis in space and time of the agent behaviours is used to plan the PEV charging infrastructure of municipalities. The proposed planning methodology has been tested on an European city in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed procedure. Such charging infrastructure, defined according to the mobility needs, has been tested and used to evaluate the customer satisfaction of PEV users in term of charging demand. The proposed charging system has been implemented to estimate the average daily energy profiles for charging the smart city PEV fleet during a typical workday. This has been finally used as one day ahead energy reference profile to develop a market-oriented EV charging strategies. The performance of the proposed smart charging strategies has been finally simulated and compared. date: 2014-12 publisher: IEEE event_title: IEEE International Electric Vehicle Conference event_location: Florence event_dates: 17-19 December, 2014 event_type: conference id_number: 10.1109/IEVC.2014.7056178 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-1-4799-6075-0 book_title: IEEE International Electric Vehicle Conference official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/abstractAuthors.jsp?tp=&arnumber=7056178&queryText%3Dagent+based+approach+fro+the+development+of+ev citation: Mureddu, Mario and Damiano, Alfonso and Musio, M. and Caldarelli, Guido and Chessa, Alessandro and Scala, Antonio An agent based approach for the development of EV fleet Charging Strategies in Smart Cities.
