An open tool for creating battery-electric vehicle time series from empirical data, emobpy
Abstract There is substantial research interest in how future fleets of battery-electric vehicles will interact with the power sector. Various types of energy models are used for respective analyses. They depend on meaningful input parameters, in particular time series of vehicle mobility, driving e...
