LCV Schedule Creater

Electric LCV schedule tool

LCVScheduleCreater is a Python-based tool designed for the creation of schedules for electric light commercial vehicles (LCV)

Installation

1. Create a new environment or use your own environment and install: Pip install efleetscheduler

How to use the tool

You can use the entire tool by running the notebook:

• notebooks/Schedule Generation Module.ipynb to create schedules for an electric LCV fleet

Configurations

The software configuration is structured around four sections that manage the generation of schedules:

Environment configuration (env_config): - "original_seed" , is the seed for for random generation of schedulers - "gen_start_date": "yyyy-mm-dd 00:00:00", start date - "gen_end_date", end date - "freq": "h", 'h' means hourly frequency. . - "EVs", is the number of electric vehicles in the fleet - "consumption_factor_file", is path to the CSV file with energy consumption factor

Schedule generator configurations (sch_config): Define the parameters required to generate the travel and charging patterns for each vehicle in the LCV fleet. - "Vehicles number", is Number of vehicles in the fleet - "Type of schedule": {"type a": n, "type b": n, "type c": n}, # Define the number of vehciles with each type of schedule in the fleet. (C is for Custom and you need to enter the characteristic in Custom Schedule) - "Type of vehicle": {"Renault": n, "Peugeot ": n}, # Renault or Peugeot - "Company type": companytype.Custom, # Types of company: Distribution, LineHaul, CraftServWithGoods, CraftServWithoutGoods, Food, Mail, Building, Highdistance, Generalcargo, Nogoods, Custom - "Schedule name", Name of the schedule
