What is the right battery size for an electric truck with respect to its charging infrastructure?

The complete reduction of greenhouse gases from the transport sector is a major challenge in the next decades. Here, we focus on electric trucks and determine the optimal battery infrastructure combination of battery and catenary electric tucks with respect to market shares and energy consumption. The analysis is based on the market diffusion model ALADIN with which we run a monte carlo simulation with 1,000 random variable combinations for battery capacities and infrastructure to understand the interdependencies. We find increasing market shares of battery electric and catenary electric trucks with higher battery capacities. The influence of infrastructure on market shares and energy consumption is of secondary order and limited.
