A major challenge for large-scale deployment of electrical vehicles (EVs) is charging. In general, the number of EVs that can be charged can be increased either by physically expanding charging capacity or by better exploiting existing charging capacity. In this paper, we focus on the latter, exploring how advanced EV travel planning systems can be used to better align where and when EV charging happens with where and when charging capacity is available. Our novel travel planner enables EV users to plan their trips and EV charging in a way that meets their needs yet reflects charging availability. The core innovation of our approach is that we take a broader, multidestination perspective to EV travel planning ‐‐ this gives our planning system more flexibility and scope for deciding when and where charging should happen and, consequently, enables a better alignment between the need for charging implied by the EV travel and the availability of charging. We evaluate our approach on an agent-based simulation of several medium-scale scenarios based on real-world data. The results confirm the benefits of our multi-destination approach, especially in scenarios in which charging service providers support upfront booking of charging slots.
