Project leader: Edi ASSOUMOU
The EV-STEP project, initiated in 2012, was completed at the end of 2015. It was set up by Edi ASSOUMOU, who was also the project leader. It brought together a consortium of four research laboratories in France, Germany and Denmark.
Its objective was to implement a systemic modelling approach in order to analyse the implications of massive development scenarios for electric vehicles. To do so, it relied on the use of three models: a MARKAL/TIMES model with a European scope, TIMES PanEU, the IMACLIM-S macroeconomic model, and an EVCAP load profile optimisation model. The scope of the research is multi-scalar from Europe to a specific urban area. This research project has been financed for France by the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy, responding to the strategic axis 1 of the Electromobility + call.
Within the framework of this project, the CMA has in particular developed the EV-CAP calculation platform, which allows the definition of recharging profiles for a fleet of vehicles in 15-minute time steps. These profiles were defined according to various technical and economic constraints relating to the network, the recharging infrastructure and the cost of electricity.
The project was completed in 2015.
