ABSTRACT

Efficient methods for the development of alternative-fuel refueling infrastructure are essential in accelerating the transition to a new energy economy. This paper develops a prototype spatial decision support system (SDSS) that integrates a location model into a GIS. The model locates refueling stations to refuel maximum volume of vehicle flows that may be on deviation paths. The extensible SDSS helps decision makers explore the effects of various alternative-fuel vehicle demand scenarios on the optimal station locations. The SDSS provides ample flexibility in combining different assumptions on alternative-fuel vehicle (AFV) drivers’ deviation behavior, spatial variation of AFV demand, vehicle range, and existing facilities. It provides multiple views of the results, including interactive maps and descriptive statistics while suggesting a best solution given the constraints.
