We consider a car-sharing problem in a company during business hours. The employees, located at one or several offices, have to travel to one or more appointments each with a fixed location and fixed start and end times and return to one of the offices afterwards. Each employee trip can be...

Battery-electric vehicles provide a pathway to decarbonize heavy-duty trucking, but the market for heavy-duty battery-electric semi-trailer trucks is nascent, and specific charging requirements remain uncertain. We leverage large-scale vehicle telematics data (205 million miles of driving) to...

Road transport causes one fifth of the EU's total emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), which are especially high in cities. A suggested solution to this situation is the introduction of electric vehicles (EV). However, evidence from European countries shows that, without any governmental support,...

Due to the dangerous effects of fossil fuels, policymakers tend to substitute fossil-fuel-based vehicles with electric ones. Thus, the optimal design of a charging station network providing convenient access for the users is of great importance. This paper presents a two-stage stochastic...

In this paper we propose and solve a real options model for the optimal adoption of an electric vehicle. A policymaker promotes the abeyance of fossil-fueled vehicles through an incentive, and the representative fossil-fueled vehicle's owner decides the time at which buying an electric vehicle,...
