Delivery routes and charging profiles for electric vehicles in logistics fleets

Delivery traffic becomes more and more focus in projects, that deal with the transformation of drivetrain technologies. Within the Germany-wide research project ZUKUNFT.DE, the simulation tool and user interface "Load Profile Generator (LPG) for electric vehicles in logistics fleets" was created. The tool was developed to determine the current needs of conventional logistics fleets, which operate on the so-called "last-mile". The individual electrification potential of battery electric delivery vehicles and the respective load profiles represent the main results.
