description

A methodology to estimate the energy consumption of an electric vehicle is presented. An approach to create a driving cycle based on data extracted from road planning software is developped; it is used to forecast the total cycle energy consumption. Results are compared to the ones obtained from the corresponding actual driving cycle. The influence of road elevation is taken into. Results match with regard to vehicle velocities, power demand and estimated energy consumption, with a maximum error of 10%. It can thus be concluded that road planning-based energy consumption estimation can be a useful tool by providing accurate information to drivers.
