Prospective Vehicle Usage Profiles Method in Perspective of EV Sizing

Batteries for electric vehicles are becoming major assets against global warming. Their production is the most impactful life cycle phase and their sizing depends on the vehicle usage. However, these usages are neither representative nor even taken into account in most studies. The main reason is the lack of a representative mobility usage construction method. This paper aims to propose a method to build prospective, representative mobility usages. To do so, the method combines data from prospective scenarios in order to parametrize different typical trips. Results present the evolution of the travelled distance and times in function of the scenario chosen or the type of trips.
