Abstract: Inspired by the concept of energy internet and energy problems including greenhouse gas emission and regional shortage, this article will propose an idea of electric power distribution using city bus lines running electric vehicles. The designed power distribution system includes renewable energy sources as the energy input, power storage stations placed at some bus stops as the fixed energy output, and bus lines running electric vehicles as the connections between them. As the basic and priority problem, choosing the suitable location to place power storage stations can not only reduce the total number of construction but also increase the utilization rate of each one. Main work involves the two branch algorithms for solving the placement problem; simulation while using real-world transportation data of two city bus maps and analysis about the advantages and disadvantages of algorithms.
