Abstract: According to the current optimization problem of electric vehicle charging path planning, a charging path optimization strategy for electric vehicles is proposed, which is under the “traffic-price-distribution” mode. Moreover, this strategy builds an electric vehicle charging and navigation system on the basis of the road traffic network model, real-time electricity price model and distribution network model. Based on the Dijkstra shortest path algorithm and Monte Carlo time-space prediction method, it gets the optimal charging path navigation with the goal of minimizing the charging cost of electric vehicles. The simulation results in MATLAB and MATPOWER (MATLAB R2018a, MATPOWER3.1b2, PSERC, Cannell University) show that the electric vehicle charging path optimization strategy can solve the local traffic congestion problem better and improve the safety and stability of the distribution network because of the fully considering the convenience of electric vehicle charging.
