As global CO2 emissions continue to rise, the need to limit global warming has become an increasingly critical scientific and political challenge. The conversion of airport apron vehicles from combustion engines to electric drives is a promising technology in the aviation sector to reduce emissions. However, electric vehicles require longer recharge times, which can be overcome by implementing Dynamic Inductive Charging (DIC) technology. DIC enables charging while driving and provides vehicles with almost unlimited driving range. This book explores different approaches to optimizing the allocation of the required DIC infrastructure components by developing mathematical optimization models and algorithms.
