Properties

Acronym PDPTW-EV
Title Pickup and delivery problem with time windows and electric vehicles
Criterion MIN
Description The PDPTW-EV is about planning routes to satisfy requests; each request requires that a commodity is transported from a pickup to a delivery location with access to locations restricted by a time window. Electric vehicles, which are constrained by battery capacity and capacity for commodities, serve the routes. The vehicles start with a fully charged battery at the depot, and they can recharge the battery en route at dedicated recharging stations.
